3rd way of increasing your earnings

Bismillah

Constantly Worshipping Allah (SWT)

This is another way that people can be blessed by Allah (SWT) in their worldly affairs but let it not be assumed that the meaning of this phrase is to abandon all worldly efforts such as ones duty to their family and business. What is meant here is that we should always be conscious of our worship. The true believer does not let family or business come in the way of his worship, during the acts of worship we should be humble and attentive, realizing the greatness of our Lord, our minds should not wander to other thoughts and worldly affairs.

In part of the hadith of Jibril reported by muslim the Prophet (SAW) said:

“..worship Allah (SWT) as though you see Him, for even if you do not see Him, of a surety He sees you.”

So we should be kind to family, honest to customers and conscious that all deeds are being monitored by Allah (SWT) (SWT).

One of the proofs that constant worship increases wealth is in this hadith Qudsi reported by al-Tirmidhi and others where Abu Hurayrah stated that the Prophet (saaws) said:

“Allah (SWT) says, O son of Adam! Take time out to constantly worship me, I will fill your chest with richness and remove your poverty. And if you do not do so, I will make your hands filled with occupation, and will not remove your poverty.”

Here Allah (SWT) informs us that those who worship Him constantly will be rewarded by having their hearts filled with richness and their poverty covered up. This indicates such people will not be dependant on others to supply their needs; rather Allah (SWT) will cover up their condition and supply them with rizq/wealth without having to go to other people to obtain it.

On the other hand , if a person does not take the time out to worship Allah (SWT), Allah (SWT) will punish him by making him very busy with work etc yet despite all his hard work, because his hard work is deprived of Allahs blessings, he will not be successful and still be reliant on others.

And Allah (SWT) knows best.
