Reasons why the Muslims are not successful today



1.       Laziness and incompetency – you give them (your children) every form of luxury in the world which makes them lazy. You should teach your children archery (training focus and concentration), horse riding (to develop character to control bigger creatures and to be a leader), and swimming (to cope under pressure).

2.       Fear – because of this we do not travel, we do not try new things (try new business ideas), we are afraid to try and begin new ventures. We should always remember Allah that He will provide for us, fear only Allah, there is nothing else to fear, overcome the fear of the world. “Rich dad, poor dad” – read the book before leaving your current job.

3.       Love for this world and this life before death – beware the magic of this world, for it is worse than the magic of harut and marut who used black magic to separate the union of a husband and wife. Indeed this love for the world is a distraction. We are afraid to get out of our comfort zone. We are contented and do not wish to struggle. If you cannot sacrifice then you will not be able to achieve greatness. Strike when the iron is hot, never delay.
