The Productive Muslim by Mohammed Farris

Productivity after Death

Ramadan and Productivity

Developing Productive Habits

Linking Your Productivity to Your Goals and Vision

Social Productivity

Physical Productivity

Spiritual Productivity

We should seek forgiveness often and stay away from sin in order to protect ourselves from the dire consequences in the hereafter

We should always seek barakah in our lives through its various sources and means

In order to improve our energy, focus, and time from a spiritual perspective, we need to live according to the values and guidance sent to us by Allah through His Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

Spiritual productivity is the link between our energy, focus, and time with our spirituality

Islam and Productivity

Spheres of life

Social

Impact those around us

Humanity

Community

Relatives

Neighbors

Families

Physical

Mainstream productivity science

Spiritual

Understanding spiritual productivity is to understand the link between the unseen divine world and the material world

Boost productivity through spiritual concepts, rituals, and ideals

Islamic view of productivity is purpose led, to please Allah maximizing reward in the Hereafter

Misconceptions

Islam vs Muslims - it's easy to blame outside forces on the condition of Muslims, but we need to reflect on this

Dangerous misconceptions

It's all written

This needs a theological debate on destiny and free will

If you are thankful, you will be given more

Allah created life and death to test us who does best, there is no test without free will

We are tested with fear, hunger, and loss

Righteousness means acts of worship

Actually righteousness is to be productive in not just spiritual matters but physical and social ones too

All you need is patience

We should not be passive in patience, we should be actively trying to improve our condition in patience just like we are active while making dua

All you need is Dua

Actually you need to give your best effort and do Dua like the prophets did

We should neglect the dunya

Actually dunya and akhera are connected

We were not always like this

Soul Guided

Belief in Hereafter

Nourishment of the soul

Value Driven

Ihsaan (Excellence)

Sidq (Honesty)

Amana (Trust)

Purpose Led

Being Allah's authority on Earth

Vicegerent, deputy, or potential trustee to home responsibility is temporarily given

Temporary, we are not here for long, our true ancestral home is Jannah

Everyone is a guardian responsible for their charges

Asked for 5 things on the day of judgement

His wealth, how he got it, and how he spent it

Life and how he lived it

Youth and how you spend it

Knowledge and how he used it

Need to earn it, not a birthright

Being a slave of Allah

If you are not a slave to Allah, you are a slave to something or somebody else

Choose the Creator instead of a creation

Frees you from the shackles of this life

We are given the Quran with guidance and the Sunnah as an example to follow

Lack of purpose can destroy people

I've noticed this is the main thing that is needed for life design as well, find your why

Begin with the end in mind

History of modern productivity science

Human productivity enhancement through understanding, AI, and robotics age (now)

Future AI and robotics for most tasks?

Robotics, especially in repetitive and dangerous tasks

AI assisting in tasks

Understand physical, emotional, neurological needs of humans

Technological productivity age (1980s - 2000s)

Frederick Winslow Taylor (1856-1915)

Optimizing output in factories

First figure in management science

Based in Western Civilization thinking

Capitalism, pursuit of worldly pleasures, and materialism

Separation of church and state

Supremacy of reason and science

What is Productivity

You can't always be productive

Productivity is not about being busy, a single event, or boring

Productivity = Focus x Energy x Time (towards maximizing reward in the Hereafter)

Productivity is about continuously making smart choices with your focus, energy, and time in order to maximize your potential and achieve beneficial results
