What is the way to pay off a debt of 20 million Egyptian pounds after the company's collapse and being forced to flee Egypt?
One must rely on Allah and be determined to pay off debts, and earning money to pay them off is an obligation if the person is capable. Whoever is sincere in their intention to repay, Allah will help them, for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever takes people's money intending to repay it, Allah will repay it on his behalf." One should also frequently engage in (remembrance of Allah) and du'a (supplication), especially prophetic supplications such as: "O Allah, I seek refuge in You from anxiety and sorrow... and from being overwhelmed by debt and subjugated by men," and "O Allah, suffice me with Your lawful provisions against Your unlawful ones, and enrich me by Your grace, independently of anyone besides You."
