Advice for the One Burdened by Debts
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah preserve you. I am an employee with a monthly salary of three thousand riyals, and I support three families: my own family, my father’s brothers, and my uncle’s family. I am constantly burdened with many debts; whenever I pay off one debt, I fall into another. This has caused me worry, sadness, and distress. What do you advise me to do? May Allah reward you.
Answer:
You should seek help from Allah (Mighty and Majestic), asking Him for assistance and provision, and you should work to secure the means of provision, seeking the sustenance with which you will settle these needs. The doors of provision are many, and whoever engages in them, Allah will make a way out for him and provide for him from where he does not expect. Let him place his reliance upon Allah, for that is good. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
