Sometimes I worry that if I push for extra income, I'll be pushing my luck with Allah too.

Salaam everyone. Honestly, I'm grateful for the job I have-it's halal and stable-but with how things are financially, a bit of extra rizq would really help right now. I keep seeing people around me bringing in side money through freelancing or trading, and it's tempting. The tricky part is, since I'm under a work visa, I'm only supposed to earn from the employer who sponsored it; any other income could cause serious legal issues. Recently, someone reached out offering me the same type of work I'm already doing, and the extra cash would've been a relief. I did istikharah though, and after praying, I felt it was better to say no. Even though this person kept coming back with different ways to work together, promising it'd look fine on paper, and many of my friends are doing similar things without any apparent problems, I just can't shake this feeling. Deep down, I feel like if I went ahead, Allah might test me with a swift consequence-like losing my main job or facing even bigger troubles. So I'm sticking to my decision. I keep making dua that if Allah wills more provision for me, it comes through my current, lawful job, and not something on the side that might backfire. Sometimes, staying on the straight path feels tough, but I trust that He knows best for my rizq.
