That's why I think it's best not to tell ppl about big plans or news unless really necessary--like when making marriage plans, etc. I think drawing unnecessary attention can reduce baraka and sometimes ikhlas, may Allah help us all.

What about discussing such projects and plans with ones spouse? Would it be recommended in such a case to discuss our plans with our wives and families?

I wonder whether this “secrecy” is also a key to one`s ikhlas or sincerity to Allah swt.

Insha Allah it's okay to ask a question on this... What does 'seek assistance' mean here? And could you please give some examples of the types of plans and projects that are meant? I guess speaking about one's plans to those you wish to seek assistance from is an exception? Thank you and jazak Allah khayr. Salaam. Assalaamu’alaykum, Shaykh.
