🎯 What is a Career?

A career isn’t just “what job you do.” It’s the long-term path of your life - your direction, your legacy, and a huge part of how you'll be judged in this world and the next.

Think of it like this:

You’ll spend 30+ years of your life working 8+ hours a day — that’s a massive chunk of your life. So it can’t just be about making money or pleasing your parents. Your career should:

• Use the skills and gifts Allah gave you.
• Be something that helps others or brings goodness into the world.
• Most importantly, it should be something that pleases Allah and passes His test.
