THE BELIEVER’S LIVELIHOOD
Believers, when you are summoned to Friday
prayers hasten to the remembrance of God and
cease your trading. That would be best for you, if
you but knew it. Then, when the prayer is ended,
scatter in the land and go in quest of God’s bounty.
Remember God always, so that you may prosper.
But when they see some merchandise or passing
delight they flock to it eagerly, leaving you alone.
Say: “That which God has in store is far better than
passing delight and merchandise. God is the best of
providers;”
(62:9-11)
