Pearl of Wisdom

when he was asked about giving the male the share of two females, said, 'The reason why women are given half of what men are given from the inheritance is because when a woman marries she receives [the mahr dowry] and the man gives. Therefore it [i.e. the inheritance] is a greater amount for men. Another reason for giving the male the share of two females is because the female is under the responsibility of the male when she is in need, and he has to support her and provide for her expenses. The female does not have to support the male, nor is it taken from her expenses when he is in need. So because of this , Allah Almighty has saved this for the man, and this is according to Allah's verse: Men are the managers of women, because of the advantage Allah has granted some of them over others, and by virtue of their spending out of their wealth.'

Question: Assalamoalaikum! How are you ??
My name is Amir Shehzad. I am from Pakistan. I have done BSc (hons) Electrical Engineering with majors in Computer Engineering. I have some confusion related to my studies and I am writing this email to you to get some help for correct direction in the field.
I am confused as a MUSLIM, should I further continue my studies in field of my interest i.e., computer science .
I don’t have any idea that's why writing to you. What can I do with computer science for the people?? No rather I should ask what should be my aim in this field according to Islam. And one more should I excel in this field?? If yes then why should I study so hard??
I lack motivation but if I want to work, I would like to work in this field.

So please help me with the knowledge ALLAH has blessed you with.
Jazak ALLAH.
