6. Review of Norway's Economic Capacity

7. Up to Double the Increase in Promotion Services
Certainly, respected merchants know that some promotion services are provided in a limited quantity per month or week.
These services include:
- Guest posts for the trading house
- Presentation of foreign representatives
- Content production on the merchant's website and reports
- Advertising in internal and export channels
Arad Branding will double the promotion services for merchants who announce their daily participation through comments.
For example, if a merchant has Promotion 1 and is supposed to receive 4 guest posts per month, they will receive up to 8 guest posts.
The doubling applies specifically to merchants who participate daily and regularly, and naturally, the more this daily regularity decreases, the fewer the services increased will be. For instance, if a merchant participates less than three days a week, they will only receive the services mentioned in the promotions and will not receive any increase in services.
8. Senior Managers Workshop for Non-Festival Merchants
Arad Branding fills the vacant spots in the schemes intended for festival merchants with those who announce their daily presence by participating in comments.
For example, there is a minimum capacity for Scheme A, which the festival merchants did not reach. Arad wants the number to exceed the set threshold to show the strength of the Aradi community.
In this case, merchants who are not part of the festival but participate daily in comments are utilized.
This scheme and the previous one are set up to emphasize the importance of those who seriously show their association with Arad, to create a distinction between those who are always with Arad and those who are inconsistent.
One of the schemes we have during this time is the senior managers' workshop, which is being held from Saturday, Esfand 4th to Thursday, Esfand 9th.
All Aradi merchants, whether part of the festival or not, should complete the following form.

Festival merchants are unconditionally accepted in this workshop, and after reviewing the participation of non-festival registrants in the comments, we will inform them whether they can attend the workshop or not.
We have no way to determine whether you are with Arad every day except through your participation in comments.
9. Practical Mujahideen
One of the issues that Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, strongly despises is failing to act on the things that a person knows.
There was a time when you, noble ones, didn’t know that ninety percent of wealth is in trade.
Now that you know, do you accept that this trade requires time?
Do you accept that when there is a profession you are unfamiliar with, you must learn it?
The question Allah asks of inactive believers is:
"O believers! Why do you say what you do not do?" (Surah As-Saff, 61:2)
Let us truly sit down and answer this question in solitude.
Why, when I say that trade is the best profession, do I not act on it?
In the past, I was ignorant about this—may God forgive me.
Now that I have knowledge, why do I act like the ignorant ones?
How disgraceful and inappropriate it is for me to act with knowledge the same way I acted when I was ignorant.
If your lifestyle before and after Arad is the same, what answer will you give on the Day of Judgment?
Forget about the Day of Judgment.
What answer will you give to your children and future generations when your grandchild asks:
"Grandfather, you were once ignorant about trade and accepted that you didn’t do anything to help us become wealthy. But after you learned about it, why did you not act?
Should I believe that you truly love me, or are you just an empty drum?
If you loved us, you would have made an effort to save us from this life of poverty, hardship, and difficulty.
You are lying when you say you love us.
You only love yourself and the laziness of your own soul."
What will someone who knows about trade but does not act on it answer to these questions?
Surely, you will be indebted to yourself and your entire family.
But Allah says, "I do not care about the others; I am the greatest complainant."
How disgraceful it is to have Allah as your accuser.
If people are your accusers, you may find some way to appease them.
But what will you do when the Creator is the one accusing you?
This is why immediately after the previous verse, Allah says:
"How despicable it is in the sight of Allah that you say what you do not do!" (Surah As-Saff, 61:3)
In Surah Fatir, verse 39, Allah calls the disbelief of disbelievers "māqt" (anger and wrath), but He does not call it "great māqt."
However, He refers to the inaction of believers as "great māqt."
We say "believers" because initially, the audience is warned, and Allah says: "O believers! Why do you say what you do not do?"
It means you were once a disbeliever in God and His teachings, and your anger did not provoke Allah as much as when you became a believer but still did not act.
You were once unbelieving about trade and said, "I don’t accept it," and made no effort toward trade. This caused less wrath from Allah than now, when you say you believe in trade but still live your days just like the past when you did not believe in it.
Do you know what the main issue was when these verses were revealed?
Was it about not acting on prayer, fasting, Hajj, Zakat, or Khums?
What action were the believers avoiding that caused Allah to reveal these verses?

If you have been the audience of my writings, I have previously mentioned that the only action the believers were deeply avoiding was fighting.
That is, fighting in the way of Allah against the enemies of Allah and His religion.
Because, in none of the acts of worship, there is harm involved.
But in fighting, there is the possibility of injury, wounds, and even death.
Now, I ask you a question:
What is the main enemy of Muslims today?
Do you consider poverty to be a more dangerous enemy?
America, Israel, and the Jews, as stated in the Quran, Surah Al-Ma'idah, Ayah 82, "Of all men you will find the Jews and those who associate others with Allah in His divinity to be the most hostile to those who believe" how do they demonstrate this enmity?
Why does the Jewish service want to weaken the believers through sanctions and economic pressure?
You can post anything you want on Instagram.
On Facebook and LinkedIn, you can post anything you want.
But when you want to create content about trade and money, as soon as they recognize it, they suspend your account. Therefore, if you want to write about money, you must write it as "m.o.n.e.y" to make it harder to detect.
Do you really see this? Don’t you wonder, "Why does Instagram allow me to post anything, but when I want to talk about money and trade, it doesn’t let me?"
You don’t realize that they love it when you spend your life watching nonsense and useless clips, but they don’t allow you to talk about money and trade.
Do you really not see the hostility of the Jews toward our economy, or are you pretending not to notice?
Does the Jewish hostility with Muslims only lie in the economic sphere?
So when the enemy wants to weaken us with poverty, what does the fighting of the believers become?
Isn’t it trade, in which Allah has placed ninety percent of wealth?
Now, military fighting causes physical harm, while economic fighting in trade also causes spiritual harm.
What is its spiritual harm?
It’s that the money is in the customer's hands, and they say no to you.
When they say no, you fall apart.
If all the customers said yes and paid money, would there be any spiritual harm?
Wouldn’t all the people of Iran become traders if all the customers said yes?
So the only problem with trade is that some customers say no.
And hearing no breaks many people and their souls can’t withstand the endurance.
To change a "no" into a "yes," they must be trained and take action. This is where the true individuals stand out.
And indeed, the initial verses of Surah As-Saff were revealed about practical action in the context of fighting. Because right after talking about Allah's immense anger toward those who do not act, He turns to speak about His love for those who do act and says:
"Indeed, Allah loves those who fight in His way." (Surah As-Saff, 61:4)
By the time we reach this point and with the explanations we’ve given, anyone engaged in economic activity, especially traders, will be happy because I too am among those who are loved by Allah.
But immediately after this, Allah says, "No, you are not among them."
And you wonder, "Why, O Allah?"
Why, when I am trying to fight poverty, do you not consider me one of those who fight in Your way?
Isn't trade Your way?
Allah says, "Trade is My way. Fighting poverty is also fighting. But the type of fighting in My way is what matters to Me."
This is where we read the full verse:
"Surely Allah loves those who fight in His cause in solid ranks as if they were one concrete structure." (Surah As-Saff, 61:4)
This verse is not just about the practical action of believers.
This verse is about Mujahideen who fight together in organized rows.
What kind of structures are meant?
Rows that are like a "solid structure," meaning a structure where no cracks or gaps occur between them.
Perhaps there are traders who go on a business trip together, but they sell each other out.
They abandon each other over a few percent of profit here and there.
Can they claim to be rows like "a solid structure"?
Whenever I read this verse, Surah As-Saff, Ayah 4, not only do I think of the Mujahideen in the way of Allah in Islam, but I also think of the martyrs of Karbala and the traders of Arad.
I’m not saying that today we have reached a point where we can claim to be like "a solid structure" as traders of Arad, but we can be hopeful about it.
Hopeful that on the Day of Judgment, a caller will declare that the traders of Arad fought in the way of trade and the battle against poverty and stood in rows as solid as a rock.
No non-Aradi and no fake Aradi could cause division or hostility between them.
They were so tightly bound that no Aradi trader would ever abandon another.
Whenever one faced a problem, other traders rushed to help.
No one could separate them with the promise of more profit.
Do you want to find out if you’ve reached that point today or not?
Imagine someone says to you, "I will make a billion-dollar deal with you, on the condition that after this, you abandon collective trade with Arad and do it alone."
Would you accept the money and trade alone, or would you reject the money and prefer to stay with the collective Arad traders?
And O Allah, You are fully aware of everyone’s actions.
As for me, You know that I have had many financial offers much higher than what Arad offers, but I chose to remain in the collective group of Aradi traders and write for them rather than accepting those larger sums.
So accept us and love us, for Your love makes us need no other love.
