A Message to My Beloved Wife

LEGACY OF DIRECTION, NOT JUST A BUSINESS NOTE

(A Message to My Beloved Wife)

I write down note after note, not out of fear of death.
But because I know: death is certain, and life is full of uncertainties.

As your husband, I’m not just thinking about today.
I’m also thinking about the day I can no longer speak, no longer sit with you to discuss strategy, no longer review the cash flow, or explain why this system is designed this way and not another.

These business notes—on service workflows, bookkeeping, stock rotation, staff salary patterns, technician SOPs, and communication ethics—are not driven by worldly ambition.
They are born of love.
Love in the form of responsibility.

STRATEGY FOR LIFE BEFORE FATE ARRIVES

I don’t know if I will live to be 66.
That is beyond my control.
But ensuring that you won’t be confused if I’m called first,
that is part of my duty.

These notes are not for me,
but for you—and for our children one day.
So they know that this business was not built randomly.
That there are principles, systems, and values worth continuing.
And that you will not have to start from zero.

I want this business to remain an act of worship, even after I’m gone.
That’s why I’ve written its system clearly—so it can be read, understood, and continued
by whoever you trust,
without depending on my memory that is no longer here.

WHY THIS MATTERS IN ISLAM

In Islam, a husband is not just a breadwinner,
but also a qawwam—a guide for the family.
And a good guide doesn’t leave his family at the edge of a cliff when he must go.
He equips them with direction.

I don’t want to leave you with just money.
Money can run out.
But a system and sound reasoning—written down—
that is true legacy.

This system is a form of amar ma’ruf in worldly affairs:
earning a living with honesty,
managing wealth justly,
keeping customers’ trust,
and being fair to workers.
I’ve written it all. In detail.
So you can understand my direction—not just the results.

IF ONE DAY I’M GONE

If fate comes sooner than we hoped,
don’t panic.
Open my notes.
Follow the system’s flow.
Continue what can be continued.
Evaluate, adapt, carry on.
There’s no need to be afraid.

We’ve talked before:
I want our children to learn from real examples,
not from fairy tales of the rich.
And I want you to know,
that I prepared all this so you can stand strong,
not dependent on anyone’s pity.

CONCLUSION: THIS IS HOW I LOVE YOU

Some people love with poetry, others with gifts, others with promises.
I love you with a system.
With a structure that can be passed on.
With strategy.
Because I want you to still know the way, even when I can no longer speak.

This is not just a business.
It’s a living will, written before I die.
So you’ll know:
even in my silence one day,
I am still trying to protect you all.
