Thank you for stopping by, Asmaa. Let us know if you try this budgeting method out.

Wa alaikum salaam. I’m happy to hear you tried it today. How did you find it?

That was a very comprehensive article, and I think it’s great to have a clear idea of income and expenditure before embarking on the budgeting method outlined in my piece above. This way, you know if you can save, and how much disposable income you have. But doing a balance sheet isn’t absolutely necessary, as the method I wrote about is a great way to actually work towards lowering essential expenditure, be it by changing phone/ internet plans, looking for a cheaper energy supplier, or even watching grocery costs.

Wa alaikum salaam, Safia.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

I’m sorry you found the article patronising. It wasn’t written solely for sisters, but merely from a sister’s perspective, as I am the one who manages my family’s finances.

This method is open to everyone – male or female; single or married.

Wa iyyaki. I hope you find it useful inshaAllah.

Wa iyyaki. Please do share your thoughts on how it works out for you inshaAllah.

Wa iyyaki! I hope you find it useful.

It would be great to know how well this budgeting method works for you if you try it.
