This article discusses 3 aspects of dealing with debt:
1️⃣ Debt means lost relationships, embarrassment, and problems. There are many people who have lost close relationships due to financial disputes, because people treat you and your money as an acquired right.
2️⃣ Money deserves respect. It should be invested and given as charity instead of being handed over to the “poverty mentality” that wastes it irresponsibly.
3️⃣ The verse on debt in the book explains the significant implications of religion and the necessity of documentation to protect the rights of people and facilitate relationships in an organized manner. Therefore, rules and conditions must exist even between families and spouses, the most important of which is writing them down.
4️⃣ Charity is an option that increases money. If you are asked for a sum of money that is within your means and full will, you can give it as charity from your means.
5️⃣ Entitlement means that you first deserve a decent life, and when you are in a position of power, you will meet people’s needs by providing them with job opportunities, opening homes, and giving alms to their families.
🧲 Summary: Deserving money requires high emotional strength and the ability to understand the laws, therefore, money is not available to everyone.
