Unable to budget

· 16 Muharram 1436 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

My husband has a really big problem, he cannot budget, he spends without thinking. It's not the first time he is sitting with a very huge debt, and this is becoming a big problem for me and my kids. He borrows money from people to pay off debts, this is not right, please advise?

Answer

It is better for him to connect to some experienced mashaayikh and he should not do anything without consulting them.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
