I am wondering and it is a good thing to wonder.
Many times I pray to the Almighty to bless me with financial prosperity in this world and keep working hard for wealth.
In the process, I ponder:
1. my mindset relating to money.
a) what is my personal belief about money;
b) what is my limiting belief about money;
c) how is my relationship with money; and
d) how is money being used now.
I found this great book about how to increase wealth and it makes reference to Al Quran.

Salam...buku apa hang baca Bro...mind to share?
After reading your blog about "the art of creating wealth"..It reminds me the course tat I've attended few years ago "creating wealth' by Globe Success n I remember that we were in the same group at that time..
May be bagus jugak if i cud review "creating wealth" program in December ni...
Then, I teringat jugak seminar "Millionaire MindSet' yang I dah attend..
Now, I keep thinking whether I better join the seminar on "Success Permission" in december ...also about Money..and at the same time about health and relationship...
Thanks for sharing, izam.
I once attended the old Dr. Stephen Covey's seminar in Sunway Pyramid few years ago. What he shared (I felt) was very Islamic in the way he explained how he created wealth and distributed it (contributed it back to his family, community and to the universe) by enhancing, coaching and guiding others to use their own strength to create wealth for themselves and then spread the wealth again to others. If we are wealthy, it would be meaningless not be able to spread the wealth and leave it to benefit others before or after we die... So, we must not forget that with wealth that He granted, comes a great responsibility...
The art of creating wealth is an art in itself.
