The nice look (fashion) and finance



I wrote about packaging in a previous article, it is not just about your products, it is also about you. I am going to talk about the way you look affects your finances. For example, two guys have been invited for an interview, they are both qualified for the job. One arrives in a gorgeous bathroom slippers (smiles). Another guy comes in a nice shirt, all tucked in, wearing gorgeously polished shoes. They both had wonderful things to say during the interview, so they both have equal chances. Of course, the way the former was dressed might make them pick the latter over him, thus improving the financial status of the latter. The way you look has an impact on the opportunities that will come your way. 

I know that individuals financial capabilities vary, so it is not really about the most expensive clothes. I personally think buying very expensive clothes is a waste of money. However, I won't say go for cheap clothes, just go for quality.  If its cheap clothes go for it that you can afford, should seek refuge with Allah against poverty. Those that can afford quality clothes should also seek refuge with Him against poverty. Here are the tips you should always adhere to

* Do not wear dirty clothes.
* Guys do keep your hair nicely combed.
* Ladies do wear your make up if you want to (halal make-up products). Make sures its not heavy but medium.
*Always wear the right footwear.
*Don't wear wrinkled clothes.
*Keep your nails nice.
*Take good care of your mouth.
*Treat people nicely and wear a smile.

Make sure your business or job is halal. Everything happens  according to the will of Allah. Everything should be done for the sake of Allah. Part of doing something for the sake of Allah also means hoping for a reward from Him. 

Halal means anything lawful Islamically.

Enjoy! Keep checking my blog regularly. Cheers!

The Istikharah Prayer

Hello readers , today I will be telling you about the Istikharah prayer. It is a prayer of guidance. When you want to make a major decision in your life, it is best you seek Allah's guidance.
