i used to freelance as a graphic designer and web designer, but as bad as this may sound i avoided working for most Muslims because from experience i found them to be quite unprofessional, unappreciative and indecisive.

They also don't seem to understand the value of freelance work and wish to have amazing stuff which is almost free. I found that non-muslims were much more appreciative and understand things such as branding and how important it is so they were much more professional about it and were willing to pay more too minus all the hassle

I am really sorry for your experience, unfortunately it is true that many muslim buyers display poor attitudes with regard to these matters including timely payment. I have found that being clear from the beginning about project goals, requirements and payment saves a lot of hassle for both parties. Checking the feedback for the buyer/provider is also important.
