They excelled at the arts of earning money and trading. In fact, they monopolized the trade in cereals, dates, wine, clothes, export and import. For the services they offered to the Arabs, the latter paid heavily.

Writing to the best of my ability through knowledge bestowed by Allah azzawajal. Inspiring others through my work to write and propagate the message of Islam, as it is a responsibility bestowed by God. Recommending people to engage in contemplation, tafakkur, tadabbur, as we all are heading towards Allah SWT every minute that passes. We must be prepared and must present a good record in front of HIm. We must seek his refuge from the punishment and at the same time have hope in the infinite mercy of Allah azzawajal. Be the warriors, helpers, righteous slaves of Allah SWT in this world.
