The Importance of Financial Planning For Our Family

  • As Muslims, we should strive to follow in the footsteps of Rasulullah s.a.w., the Prophet took great care of his family. Even though Rasulullah s.a.w. shouldered various responsibilities, as a leader of his community, a Messenger of Allah s.w.t., he never failed to ensure that his family’s needs are met. Such is the responsibility of every parent and spouse towards their family.
