I ask You for a prosperous life, blessed in both deen and dunya.

A life with flowing and blessed rizq and sustenance, and draws us closer to You, not away.

A life free of stresses that steal away peace.

A life filled with health, mercy, and quiet contentment.

A life surrounded by family in love and unity.

And a life guided by purpose, not wasted in distractions.

«لِيَكُنْ جَلِيسُكَ مَنْ يُزَهِّدُكَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَيُرَغِّبُكَ فِي الآخِرَةِ، وَإِيَّاكَ وَمُجَالَسَةَ أَهْلِ الدُّنْيَا الَّذِينَ يَخُوضُونَ فِي حَدِيثِ الدُّنْيَا؛ فَإِنَّهُمْ يُفْسِدُونَ عَلَيْكَ دِينَكَ وَقَلْبَكَ.»

“Let your companion be the one who makes you abstain from the world and increases your desire for the Hereafter. Beware of sitting with the people of the dunya who immerse themselves in worldly talk, for they corrupt your religion and your heart.”

"Learn the Arabic language, it will produce intellect and increase you in respectable behaviour."

“One of the most harmful things for a person is idleness and free time. The soul never stays empty—if you do not occupy it with what benefits it, it will occupy you with what harms you—inevitably.”

And if Allah, in His wisdom, closes one of His paths before you, He opens for you by His mercy another path more beneficial than it. The Lord, Glorified be He, never withholds from His believing servant anything of this world except that He grants him something better and more useful in return.
