DDHK.ORG - Many Indonesian migrant workers go to Hong Kong to get out of the economic problems that ensnare families. But unfortunately, instead of achieving prosperity in overseas countries, some of them do into debt up to tens of thousands of dollars.
However, debt is a responsibility that must be resolved while living in the world. Neglecting debt payments risks burdening a servant's burden in the hereafter. No matter how heavy the debt, it must be settled in the world.
Rasulullah SAW suggested, for people who are in debt to read the following prayer:
اللَّهُمَّ اكْفِني بِحَلالِكَ عَنْ حَرَامِكَ وَأغْنِني بِفَضْلِكَ عَمَّنْ سِواكَ
[Allâhumma-kfinî bihalâlika 'an harâmika wa aghninâ bi fadl-lika' am man siwâka]Meaning: "O Allah, suffice me with the lawful so that I can avoid the haram. Suffice me with your grace so as to avoid (asking for help) other than You. " (See Muhyiddin Abi Zakariya Yahya bin Syaraf An-Nawawi, Al-Adzkâr, Darul Hadith Publisher, Cairo, Egypt)
