Question

One of my friend saw a dream that he is playing gamble with few people.He saw that he lost everything.Then he took one more chance to test his destiny.Then, suddenly Azan for asr or maghrib was called and one of his friends who is the president of the masjid saw that he is involved in the game of gamble , so he took him to masjid for the Salaah.
Please note that in real life, he is very far from gamble and haram activities and is a pious person as per my knowledge and belief.His business his also not going better this days.Please suggest the interpretation.

Answer 1

Ref. No. 38/790

In the name of Allah the most Gracious the most Merciful

The answer to your question is as follows:

Losing everything in the gamble is a loss in business. Then taking another chance is to remain in business, and going for the prayer is to pay attention to Allah in case of the loss, whosoever advances to Allah in loss there is increase in his life and wealth, therefore observe optional prayers, spend as charity and philanthropy and so strengthen your relations with Allah; you will also gain profit in your business in-Sha-Allah.

And Allah knows best.
