Can You Trust A Pakistani Muslim Freelancer on the Internet?

Do you think or believe Resurrection is NOT possible as a Technologist? If yes…! Think Again : )

I have been working on the internet for the last 20 years or you can say more than 20 years and in that time most of my clients were from America who were looking for a web developer and once they found me they loved working with me not because I am from Pakistan and not because I am a Muslim and by the way I used to wear the Turban that time on my head by the time I reached to the top 1% freelancer ranking among freelancers of the world on vworker in 2012 before it was acquisited to the Freelancer.com, but it did not stop my journey and it did not harm my business at all.

That time, I realized that making money has nothing to do with my religion and making money has nothing to do with my dress when I am working with Americans because they proved to me through their behaviours and through the transaction of the business that they value the skilled worker and a human who understands their requirements.
It means that they love working with a professional.

Just to tell you one more thing that my attitude was very high and my standards were very high as well.
I am a still on the high fly jet machine of confidence but not in just technical industry anymore. I am also working in spiritual field and also offering the spiritual services nowadays so I am telling you from my past and I still provide technical services, but both are my different businesses.

Talking from my own personal experiences, the trust issue has become a serious problem for me when I started working in spiritual industry for offering my services to help people transform their lives using my gifts, spiritual skills, prayers and other kind of stuff that was related to the performance of human being including transformation of natural creatures such as clouds, trees, animals, birds or insects.

Because the God was involved practically in my spiritual results otherwise I would not be able to produce any kind of spiritual result which are solely depend on the Will of Allah who I worship as a Muslim.

So why I am telling you this?

Because ultimately the issue of the trust has become a problem for me in spirituality rather than in information technology where I used to work with only computers and provide web development services.

Since it’s very easy for people to believe what they are using in their everyday normal life so they believe that it is true. I don’t need to convince them that I am a web developer who can create a website, they know there are millions of web developers who are making websites.

But can you imagine the trust factor of someone when I tell him that I am offering resurrection service for reviving the dead come back to life with the help of Allah?

No absolutely not!

Because most people of the planet earth believe that it is not possible. Although they believe that Jesus used to revive the dead and spiritual people in the past used to revive the dead but when they hear from me that I am offering this in the 21st century they suddenly go into denial mode.

Which is actually not hurting my business but actually they are themselves not being able to take the benefit of what I am offering but however yes….when I talk about my counselling and coaching services, they find it normal because there are so many counselors and coaches in the world.

How many scientists and doctors are offering the resurrection?
So that has become a trust issue otherwise other than that, technologically…. I don’t find trust a very serious issue unless the people from America or other international countries are deceived by the people from Pakistan who are doing freelancing and try to deceive their clients for the sake of money.

Just like some countries such as Nigeria, Bangladesh, India etc….Americans who work with the people from these countries know that there might be so many cheap services provider, low quality service provider and deception as well and yes it is so hard to stand out in such crowd especially when you are doing freelancing through websites such as Fiverr, Guru or Upwork etc.

However, Alhamdulillah that I have a very powerful background and a proven track record as a freelancer and also the teacher on Udemy where I have thousands of students in my several online crash courses so I can back it up what I am saying and it is all over the internet that people can see my background and my present as well.

So how do you see the trust issue now?

Because after all… I am a Pakistani Muslim :)
