Question

No buyer is willing to buy my house since more than 18 months. I have advertised in all the leading local newspapers, more than 100 brokers were approached but no success. My house is modern and my price is lower than current market price. I don't know what is the problem?

Answer

Recite after your five daily Salaah the following dua:

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
