Some Precautions in Trading
The person inquired, "Which book is that?" He said, "کِتَابُ الْبِیُوْع, which contains the rules regarding transactions."[1]
That is to say, the one who does not know the rulings of buying and selling cannot save himself from haram, so how can such a person be an ascetic! In essence, the true ascetic, one who refrains from inclination towards the world and love of it, is the one who successfully adheres to the Islamic principles while engaging in buying and selling.
The marketplace is where the allure of the world and wealth is most evident. It is relatively easy to isolate oneself in the mountains and caves for worship, but when Satan launches full-scale attacks in the marketplace, when carnal desires and love for wealth intensify, safeguarding one's integrity and adhering to Islamic laws become quite challenging. Therefore, the real ascetic is the one who, even while living in the world, protects his heart from worldly attachments.
Dear Islamic brothers! It is imperative that we become righteous and honest traders and customers. Let us listen to some virtues of successful traders.
1. An Honest Trader will be with Prophets
The final Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said:
اَلتَّاجِرُ الصَّدُوْقُ الْاَمِينُ مَعَ النَّبِیّٖن ، وَالصِّدِّيْقِيْنَ، وَ الشُّهَدَاءِ
"A truthful, honest trader will be with the prophets, the truthful, and the martyrs."[2]
