Do This 3 Things, and Free Yourself From Debts



Supposely, when we do not have money, we will find a bank to get some loans and other loan institutions. Maybe some of us will ask from our relatives. But that only will cause harm to your relationship (if you cannot commit to pay it back)

But here is the great news. In this present year and with such a great technology provided to us, now you do not have to borrow money from them anymore. With condition that, you are willing to do these 3 things, consistently.

1. Online business.

Nowadays, there are a lot of small businesses that started through internet. This is a big opportunity for those who in need of money. The big mistake that people do right now is, they think that if they want to do online business, they need a lot of money.

No. You can start by doing website or video in Youtube. You can get revenue through advertisement. And of course, it needs time for you to establish that profitable base.

If you hate to do video or writing a blog, then maybe you can be a re-seller or dropship. Go find products that match your interest or your expertise, and ask the founder or the owner that you want to sell their product.

Usually, the profit will be 10-20% from the selling price. So, if you sell 10 unit of RM200 per week, then you'll easily get RM800 per month. The key point for this point is, patience, and hustle.

2. Freelance.

Everyone in this world has their own expertise. So what we need to do is to find what we are best at. Some of us are expert in desigin, dancing, public speaking, and such. What is your skill?

Use that and help people around you. Market your talent out there and hustle hard.

Furthermore, there are websites called as fiverr.com and teespring.com that offer people with this kind of expertise to get their job, easily. If I'm not mistaken, one job in fiverr.com cost from $5 and above. Convert it to Malaysian currency and boo-yah, easy money (RM20+) per one job.

3. Register for crowdfunding.

Usually, we will heard about 'crowdfunding' term from a startup programme or any other small business that need money from public or investors. The truth is, there are a lot of ways to get crowdfunding, as long as you have your own platform.

One of them is skolafund that founded by Singaporean-Malaysian university student from Malaysia. You can try to sign for petition to get fund via skolafund. This platfrom is suitable for people that does not have any project or offical matters to get the fund. Usually a people with financial problem to continue studies and such.

Furthermore, if you have your own business for example, a startup. You can go to any event that promote the spirit of entrepreneurship such as Startup Weekend that organized by MaGIC. You also can approach any well-known businessman that already in your niche.

Be active.

These 3 steps only can help you pay your debt, if you're really passionate about it. In life, there are no secret to success. They must have these 2 things to put together all the success, work hard and patience.

The Comparison Between Riba' Al-Nasai'e and Riba' Al-Fadhl

Image
First of all, let us see, what is Riba' Al-Nasai'e (riba' on credit) and Riba' Al-Fadhl (riba' on cash). Firstly, Riba' al-Nasai'e. It refers to a stipulated increase over the loan which a debtor agrees to pay to his creditor in relation of a specific period of time. The charge payable are fixed by the borrower to the lender depends on how many the loan money produces. Thus, any gain that comes from a loan transaction is usurious. This type of riba is prohibited by the Quran (30:39; 4: 160-1; 3: 130; and 2: 275-281). The hadith of the Prophet p.b.u.h. states: “Jabir said that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) cursed the receiver of interest and its payer, and one who records it, and the two witnesses, and he said: They are all equal (in term of sins).” (Bukhari and Muslim) Since the verses of Quran has directly rendered this type of riba' as 'haram', it is also can be called as Riba' al-Qur’an. For example, this kind ...

#TL;DR : Risk Sharing In Islam

Image
Islam does not prohibit all commercial business or all loans. Instead, it encourages legitimate commerce and trade activities, undertaken on the basis of ‘equitable risk sharing.’ Equitable risk sharing means, that both parties share in the reward, or the failure, of the investment, thereby encouraging more responsible lending practices.  However, the ‘unjust’ loans provided to conventional banks, or any conventional financial institutions were not given on this basis. Therefore there was no reason for the bank to ensure that the loans were invested wisely and productively, or that the borrowers would be able to pay them back. In Islam, the responsible loans (or known as a profit) such as those that are used to finance economic activities are permitted. However, it is the obligation of the lender to provide loans in a responsible manner and also in a manner that does not overburden the borrower. Yet, the ‘unjust’ loans given by some conventional financial instituti...
