Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
You refer to two aspects in your query,
What to do to find a good source of income,
What should I do to get a good pious wife.
While Allah Taala has decreed sustenance for every living being on this earth, we live in this world of means. When searching for anything one adopts appropriate means to acquire it. You should also adopt suitable means and seek counsel from appropriate people on what you should do to earn earn an income. Together with that be punctual with your salaah and recite Duruud Sharif abundantly.
Constantly recite this dua too after every fardh salaah,
O Allah, suffice me with Your lawful against Your prohibited, and make me independent of all those besides You.
Marriage is one of the most important aspects of one’s life. When searching for a suitable spouse, consult appropriate people. The guidance and consultation of your parents is most important. Apart from adopting the means, the following duas are effective. Allah will put barakah in the means you adopt and guide you to the right spouse.
Read Duruud Sharif abundantly and the following ayaats of the Holy Quran.
Our Lord! Bestow on us from our wives and our offspring who will be the comfort of our eyes, and make us leaders for the pious. (Furqaan)
“My Lord! Truly, I am in need of whatever good that You bestow on me!”(Qasas)
We make dua Allah Ta’āla grant you a suitable marriage partner and halal sustenance. Ameen.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
