#1 - Why 98% Of Muslims Today Don’t Strive To Become

Financially Successful
________________________________________________________

We Muslims often fall into the trap of not trying to become successful in this
life because “it will make us less focused on the Deen” or “money is evil.”

Well, here’s the truth…

Generating an income on your own can allow you to:

● Pray salah on time without having to ask permission from your boss.

● Travel the world and explore Allah’s creation.

● You will have more time to invest in the Akhira, like doing extra Dhikr,
praying voluntary prayers, gaining knowledge about Islam, etc.

● Spend more time with your family.

Plus, achieving financial success will allow you to:

● Provide for your loved ones,

● Be able to help the ummah who are in need.

● Spend in Allah’s cause.

Also, Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) and most of his companions were

successful entrepreneurs.
The purpose doesn't have to be profit, but it can be a means of preaching
and demonstrating to the world how smart Muslims are by setting a good
example.

Speaking of preaching,

when it comes to content creation, it is a golden opportunity for us

Muslims to spread the Deen while also making a living out of it.

#2 - The Secret Of Making Content The Halal Way

________________________________________________________

First, let's understand content creation for social media, including:

- Written content: Tweets or TikTok slideshows with quotes.

- Visual content: Informative photos on Instagram.

- Video content: Engaging TikTok or YouTube videos.

So how do we avoid making haram content?

Fame is one of the most dangerous things for a Muslim, so always check
your intentions before posting.

Think like this, everything that would generally be haram in real life, don’t
post about it on social media.

Some examples are:

 ● Lying
● Foul language
● Mocking

But there is one that I need to specifically mention..

Instrumental Music.

Having instrumental music in your video is one of the biggest mistakes

among Muslim content creators.

And the worst part is that the person is committing their sin in public…

"All the sins of my followers will be forgiven except those of the Mujahirin (those
who commit a sin openly or disclose their sins to the people). Sahih al-Bukhari
6069

And the problem here is that if a Muslim decides to make content that is not
about Islam, that person is gonna struggle to grow because Nasheeds or
Halal Beats don't fit in.

That’s why I want to talk about the opportunity of making Islamic content,
so keep reading… More is coming.

________________________________________________________

#3 - “The Perfect Job” Gain Good Deeds & Earn Money

________________________________________________________

As Muslims, we have the opportunity to gain good deeds and potentially

(insha’Allah) earn money from our content.

When you post a video about Islam, it could be for example:

 ● Miracles in the Quran

● Sharing a Dua, or telling about a Sunnah from the Prophet (S.A.W)

That is a beneficial video.

Muslims learn something new!

And non-believers learn about Islam, which could potentially lead them
closer to the truth…

“Whoever guides someone to goodness will have a reward like one who did
it.” (Sahih Muslim 1893)

Think about it, if you make Islamic content consistently, imagine how many
people will benefit from your content.

You are benefiting others with Islamic knowledge and you are benefiting
yourself with good deeds that will insha’Allah help you on the Day of
Judgement.

And that’s not it…

Mastering content creation skills opens the door to earning money through
programs like:

YouTube Partner Program or TikTok Creativity Program.

On top of that, once you have built up a brand on social media, more
opportunities will open up like starting your own business,

but that’s for later…

________________________________________________________

#4 - Consistency Is Key
________________________________________________________

If you stop making content, your channel will “die.”

Or if you take a break or lack consistency, your audience will rapidly fade
away.

Raw action is what’s going to show success, by the will of Allah.

A beginner mistake among many new content creators is quitting when

they see no progress. The truth is that it’s a longer journey than just
uploading a couple of videos…

When you keep going, you will notice your audience slowly growing, and
you will notice yourself becoming a better content creator.

It’s like a snowball effect… “Whoow '' and boom bam you’ve got yourself a
viral video and from there you can build momentum.

That is because content creation is a skill, it’s a craft, and you have to work
on that craft to acquire the skills you need to succeed.

You see, if it would be easy, everyone would do it.

That’s why only the determined ones can win.

So back to consistency.
That’s why it’s crucial that you stay consistent in your work because either
way, however, the results may be.

You are still improving, and crafting your skills, to become a better content
creator.

And I often hear people complaining,

“Bro, I’m shadowbanned.”

“I’m in TikTok jail.”

“Oh, I can’t break through the 200-view prison.”

Let’s be real.

Everyone can’t be shadowbanned, right?

It’s just that your content ain’t good enough, because why would TikTok or
YouTube want to push out low-quality content on their platform?

So get back to learning, the hard way or the easy way.

Finding a mentor is key, and I learned that the hard way, that's why I’ve
made an E-book to help you!

It’s $19.99…

BUT

As you’re reading this, you are on the right path to success.

It doesn't matter how much knowledge you have, if you don't take ACTION
you’ll fail.
The reason I’m making an E-book is to help you,

But what is help without YOU taking action?

That’s why the price is $14.99 for you reading this, WHY?

I know that anyone who took the ACTION to find my content, signed up for
the PDF guide, and is reading it carefully just to learn a little bit more,
ABSOLUTELY deserves it.

Stay tuned to the newsletter to be one of the first people who get access to
the E-book.

#5 - WARNING: The Danger Of Lacking Knowledge

________________________________________________________

I will tell you a story about my journey with content creation.

I started in early 2022 with no clue what to do, so I copied TikTok videos
and uploaded them to YouTube Shorts. (Terrible idea)

I learned from watching others, but the algorithm only pushed out good
content that was hard for me to recreate, who had no experience.

But I didn’t give up.

I knew that it was either this or living the rest of my life in the 9-5 system.

While working on videos, I had to learn everything:

Writing scripts, creating hooks, editing, thumbnails, and understanding
human psychology.

After two years of hard work, I hit 60k subscribers on my channel

“Made4deen.”

But just as I was about to monetize, I got several strikes and was banned
from the YouTube Partner Program. Heartbreaking.

Two years of hard work and I thought it was game over, but…

So be patient! Surely the ultimate outcome belongs ˹only˺ to the righteous.

(Quran 11:49)

What I didn’t understand.

Was that I had crafted the skill of content creation. I had the knowledge that
made me a good content creator.

Alhamdulillah, I started a new channel, “The Anonymous Believer,” and in 3

months, it surpassed the first in subscribers.

Was it luck? No. I knew what had to be done, and you will too.

Fail. Learn. Grow.

“I never lose. I either win or I learn.” - Nelson Mandela

That’s the process of content creation. Fall back —> Learn —> Improve.

I leveled up from 1 to 10, and when I got there, I knew how to grow a
channel.

Before we move on, I want to highlight the importance of being

knowledgeable about Islam too.
Always verify your sources before posting Islamic content.

“Whosoever tells a lie against me intentionally then surely let him occupy
his seat in Hell-Fire." (Sahih al-Bukhari 1291)

Note that “intentionally” is a keyword in that Hadith.

But always make sure that when you are making content related to Islam,
check the sources, we never know, the consequences can be horrifying.

That’s up to Allah.

________________________________________________________

#6 - It’s A Pay To Win Game, Invest In Quality

________________________________________________________

Don’t take that title literally, discipline and pure hard work over wins “pay to
win.”

But the point I want to come to is…

Nobody wants to watch a poor-quality video.

You know when you scroll on your feed and the audio quality or the video
quality is terrible.

Then you naturally keep scrolling without really thinking about it.

We want to avoid that.

If you upload a video to TikTok, make sure it’s recorded in 1080p HD,
because TikTok doesn’t support 4K (might be updated in the future).
The same goes for Instagram reels.

But YouTube allows 4K on shorts.

Here’s a quick tutorial to make sure your exported video is uploaded on 4K

on YouTube:

1. Open up the YouTube app.

2. Click on your profile and then select settings.
3. Select “Upload” and then click on “Upload quality.”
4. Then choose “Full Quality.”

When you start with your content creation journey.

Depends on whether you are going to use AI voice or your own voice.

Here’s a link to the number one AI voice software on the market: (Sign up
with a free plan available) elevenlabs.io/?from=partnersalinas7711

That is the AI software I use on my videos.

However, if you are going to use your own voice, as a beginner, it’s okay to
use your phone's microphone or a pair of Apple earpods with wires.

But if you have the resources, I would recommend investing in a phone

microphone as it will improve your audio and it will look more professional
for your audience.

You can get one on Amazon for between $20 to $50, depending on the
quality you desire.

Also, if you will be filming yourself, you should invest in lights, believe it or
not. It makes a huge difference.
You can find lights that you attach to your phones, for a couple of bucks on
Amazon.

“But what If I don’t want to show my face on social media?”

There are some other options, keep reading to find out…

________________________________________________________

#7 - “I don’t want to show my face on social media. What

should I do?”
________________________________________________________

If you are reading this free guide.

Then you have probably seen my videos.

I’m covered in a ski mask, making relevant scenes according to what the
script says.

Here’s the secret…

I’m not scared to show my face.

The thing is…

When people can see you physically, but your face is covered.

And your audience is big.

People will be sooo curious to know who’s behind that mask

That will lead to them staying. Hyping up. Waiting for a face reveal.
Also, when you go from a faceless channel to a channel where you show
your face.

More doors will open up for your content creation. There will be much more
to film and more ways to be creative.

Your content will go from good to great.

And your audience will like that.

But I understand that there are people who don’t want to show themselves
on the internet at all.

It is harder to grow when you don’t show your face, but the upside is that
you don’t have to show your face.

The good part is that we have advanced AI technology, so you will be able
to generate realistic AI voices to use as narration.

Allowing you to upload videos on social media, without using your voice
and without having to show yourself.

And you might think.

“What type of videos can I even do?”

The opportunities are endless, you just have to be creative, here are some
examples:

- You can use the AI voice to say exactly what you would have said on
camera, but now it’s the AI talking.

- And you will put stock footage or your own footage in relevant places,
between each scene to keep the videos engaging.
Here are some video ideas you can create:

● Tell stories about the Prophets or their companions to inspire others.

● Quote verses from the Quran and explain them for better
understanding.

● Make videos about scientific or historical miracles from the Quran.

● Collect authentic hadiths and teach about the Prophet's (S.A.W)

practices.

● Combine Islam with self-improvement to help people succeed.

If you struggle with ideas, you can always look at what other Muslims
upload and take inspiration.

But don’t straight up copy their videos, trust me, that’s not a good idea.

Feel free to watch the videos I upload and try making similar ones if you're
having trouble coming up with ideas.

But don’t forget to give credit (;

_______________________________________________________

#8 - What AI’s Do I Use To Leverage My Content?

________________________________________________________

AI can make or break your content.

It can make your video more entertaining and professional, or it can make it
look low-quality.

Let me guess. You have tried to get a script for your video from ChatGPT,
but it turned out awful...

Right?

The thing is you have to learn how to prompt.

It doesn't have to be so complicated but it can be overwhelming…

That's why I have prepared 40 ChatGPT prompts for you that you'll ever
need for content creation.

These prompts can save you hours of work:

https://the-anonymous-believer.ck.page/products/40-chat-gpt-prompts-for-c
ontent

Here’s the AI softwares I use for my content creation:

● “Elevenlabs” for AI voiceover.

● “Runway” for image-to-video generation.

 ● I use “Immersity AI” to get a 3D animation of images.

● I also use “ChatGPT” for marketing research and SEO optimization. I

use DALLE inside ChatGPT 4, for image generation.

Observation: There are different Islamic opinions when it comes to using

AI, so do research before using any software.

Here are some hadiths that can help you get some understanding:

“The most grievously tormented people on the Day of Resurrection would

be the painters of pictures.” (Sahih Muslim 2109c)

The Prophet (S.A.W) said: “The image is the head, so if the head is cut off,
there is no image.” Narrated by al-Isma‘ili in his Mu‘jam from Ibn ‘Abbas;
classed as sahih by al-Albani in al-Silsilah al-Sahihah (192)

Based on the Hadiths above, there are different opinions on AI image

generation, so I won’t come up with a conclusion. Because I don’t want to
mislead anyone.

But as I said, do your own research before using AI.

#9 - How The Algorithm Works And How To Create A Viral

Video
________________________________________________________

Expectations for a beginner:

Create a couple of videos and get a viral hit.

Reality:
Work. Work. Work...
Consistency will give you the golden ticket to a viral video.

You probably won’t have a viral video within the first 10-50 videos, because
you haven’t yet crafted the skill of content creation.

Upload consistently, and you’ll gradually understand how content creation

works. Sooner or later, you’ll hit a viral video. But without creating content,
you can’t go viral.

But how does the algorithm actually work?

If you understand the algorithm, you will speed up the process of getting
your first viral video.

Watchtime is what plays the biggest role. You want to keep your viewers
watching the video as long as possible.

The first 3 seconds are crucial, so create a good hook to keep viewers
engaged.

Experiment with hooks like saying something outrageous, doing something

weird, or asking a question to be answered at the end.

Keep viewers interested with transitions, pop-ups, and engaging elements.

Our attention spans have dramatically decreased in recent years. That’s

why something always has to happen in your video.

I also want to note that you shouldn’t keep a scene more than 4 seconds
long.
How often do you actually watch a complete video where it only shows the
same thing on the whole video?

Not so often. Right?

So, therefore, try to keep a single scene under 4 seconds long and then go
on to the next scene, where the background video is adapted to what the
script says.

Social media platforms also like having engagement from the viewers.
They push out videos that have a lot of shares and comments.

That’s why you’ll often hear this in Islamic videos:

“Share this video, so more people can benefit from the knowledge I shared
with you guys” or “Comment ‘Amin’ in the comments!”

Try sneaking in such a phrase in your video, and you’ll see your videos
getting better results.

#10 - 3 Helpful Quick Tips

________________________________________________________

In the last lesson, I want to end by giving you 3 quick tips that will help you
grow your audience.

- Leverage Multiple Platforms

Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. Utilize different social media
platforms to reach a wider audience.
By posting on various platforms like YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok, you’ll
increase your chances of being discovered by new viewers.

Also, this will allow you to earn money individually from each platform’s
monetization program, which will create a cash flow from different streams.

You can also do cross-post content like:

For example, a short highlight from your YouTube video can be posted on
TikTok and Instagram reels.

- Collaborate with Other Muslim Creators

Collaboration is a powerful way to grow your channel.

And this will benefit both your channel and the person you are collaborating
with.

By working with other Muslim content creators, you’ll help each other’s
audiences to discover both channels.

Also, you’ll be able to create more fun and entertaining videos, when you
work together.

Look for creators with a similar niche and audience size. Reach out to them
with a clear collaboration proposal.

I will be teaching you how to reach out on the upcoming E-Book insh’Allah.

Work together to create content that benefits both of your audiences. This
could be a co-hosted video, a joint livestream, or a series of posts.
 - Engage with Your Audience

Building a strong relationship with your audience is key to long-term

success.

Engaging with your viewers helps you understand their needs and
preferences, and makes them feel valued.

Respond to comments, ask for feedback, and create interactive content like
polls and Q&A sessions.

Show your audience that you appreciate their support and you are
committed to providing value.
