We must not think in terms of looking for work, or applying for a job, for that is but intellectual prostitution to the highest bidders residing in towers of Mammon; rather, we should think in terms of defining and creating our own work, jobs, and vocations by identifying our personal creative aptitudes and pressing them into the service of our communities and our Creator. We are not mere job-seekers, workers, employees, or even managers; rather, we have a total integrated personhood (insān kullī), and we should be able to apply that total personhood outlook to whatever vocation we choose to pursue. In the process, we will contribute toward the development of our communities in the company of others. If we do that, we shall always be creatively self-employed, even if, ostensibly, we work for a boss. - Dr. Adi Setia Md Dom
