In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Milestones on the road to stability
Trust in God
It is one of the greatest means of stability
Trust in God in all matters
Especially in times of adversity
God described the condition of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, and those with him, and said:
Who people told them
People have gathered against you, so fear them
He increased their faith
They said, “God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs.”
Abraham, peace be upon him, said it when he was thrown into the fire
And Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace, said it when they said
People have gathered against you, so fear them
It increased their faith and they said, “God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs.”
Tawakkul means relying on God and trusting Him to achieve what is desired
Taking legitimate reasons
Because of its importance, it was made a condition for faith, as God Almighty said
And put your trust in God if you are believers
And he said, “Let the believers put their trust in God.”
His reward was sufficient, as God Almighty said
Whoever relies on God, He is sufficient for him
Ibn al-Qayyim said in Madarij al-Salikeen
Reliance is half of the debt and the second half is representation
Religion is seeking help and worship
Trust is seeking help, and turning to Allah is worship
His position is the widest and most comprehensive of all the stations
It is still populated with people coming down
The sting of dependence
And the many needs of the worlds
And the generality of trust and its occurrence among believers and disbelievers
And the righteous and the ungodly
And birds, and beasts, and animals
The people of the heavens and the earth
Those in charge and others in a position of trust
If there is a discrepancy related to their trust
His friends and family rely on him to believe and support his religion
And uphold his word and wage jihad against his enemies
And in his favor and carrying out his orders
And write down these
He who trusts in Him for His integrity in Himself
And keep his condition with God
Empty for people
And write down these
Whoever relies on him for something he will receive from him
Of livelihood or well-being
Or victory over an enemy
Or a wife, or a child, and so on
And write down these
Who can be trusted to prevent sin and immorality?
Those who make these demands often do not achieve them
Except by their help from God and their trust in Him
Rather, their trust may be stronger
Of those who are obedient
That's why they throw themselves into ruins and ruins
Relying on God to deliver them and forgive them for their demands
It is better to trust
Reliance in duty
I mean the duty of truth
And the duty of creation
And the duty of the soul
The broadest and most useful
Relying on influence abroad
In religious interest
Or in pushing religious corruption
It is the trust of the prophets in establishing the religion of God
And repel the corruption of corruptors on earth
This is the trust of their heirs
Then people continue to rely on what matters and their goals
Whoever trusts in God to obtain kingdom
And who trusts in getting a loaf
Whoever is sincere in his trust in God to achieve something, he will achieve it
If he is loved and pleasing to him
He had a good outcome
Even if he is angry and hated
What happened to him due to his trust was harmful to him
Even if it is permissible
He got the benefit of trusting without the benefit of what he trusted
If he does not seek help from him in his obedience
