Sometimes we delay the prayer because at that time was quite brisk business activities such as what happened in the night markets. In fact, there are not strong in the faith continues to leave the maghrib prayer for fear of losses. This is the nature of people who are not so confident with the condition that the provision of our God is with Allah. Although we have tried with all his might  but if not allowed providence of God we shall not be increased.

We need to change the mindset to make a living by saying, "In this world of His grace abound. Allah Almighty. All-Sufficient. The world will not run out of honest living, why were illegal? "Our obligation is to make extraordinary efforts to find his gifts. Therefore, we do not know how God in His providence ration for us.

Ibn Kathir interprets, "This means that, for those who fear Allah -with do what he commanded and what is forbidden to leave Him- He will provide a way out and no sustenance and direction of the unexpected directions that never crossed his mind. "

3. Trust in Allah Almighty.

"What if you put hope true God surely you will have abundance as sustenance to the birds. They left early in the morning hungry and come home late in the evening in a state of satiety "(HR. Ahmad, Tirmidhi). Resignation means sincerity in reliance on Allah. to get the benefit and prevent harm both the business world and the hereafter.

The Prophet. in the hadith Qudsi said, "Allah Almighty. said, 'O son of Adam, spend, I will gift (provides for) unto you "(HR. Abu Daud).

8. provide for prosecution of

Anas bin Malik said, "There were two brothers at the time of the Prophet. One study in the assembly of the Prophet., While the other works. Then his brother, who worked it complained to the Prophet. (Because they give maintenance to his brother). Then the Prophet. said, "I hope you are fed by being" (HR. Tirmidhi, al-Hakim).

9. Helping People Weak (poor)

Prophet. said, "Help those who are weak because you are given sustenance and helped the poor because of you" (HR. Muslim, An Nasai).

10. Finally, in the way of God

Conclusion that action some of us who work hard to earn that much income we neglect prayer and other acts of charity is a less accurate. Such action occur tap our ignorance and we are haunted by the fear of lost livelihood. While the right action is priority to  prayers and acts of worship to Allah first and then we seek lawful on this earth, we also need to increase charity and helping people in distress. God willing the things which God has promised will come without cause when it's probably time we need it.

The author's personal experience, the provision will come into its own during this yourself closer to Allah and worship shall give priority to such prayers in congregation in the early hours five times a day. Never happened in the absence of money, we continue feeding the donation and any time there is only souce that allows money we donate less because it increases exponentially.
