The trust in language
The dependence on others in a matter and term: the heart’s reliance on God Almighty to seek benefit and ward off harm from matters of this world and the hereafter (The Knowledge and Wisdom of Ibn Rajab)
Al-Jurjani, may God have mercy on him, said: Trust in what is with God, and despair of what is in the hands of people.
They said about the rely on God
Saeed bin Jubair, may God have mercy on him, said: “Putting your trust in God is half of faith.”
Trusting God is the work of the heart
Allah says
( وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى الْعَزِيزِ الرَّحِيمِ . الَّذِي يَرَاكَ حِينَ تَقُومُ . وَتَقَلُّبَكَ فِي السَّاجِدِينَ} [الشعراء:217-219]
(And put your trust in the Mighty, the Merciful, the one who sees you when you stand up. And your turning among those who prostrate.} [Al-Shu’ara’: 217-219]
Allah says
﴿ وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى الْحَيِّ الَّذِي لا يَمُوتُ ﴾
“And put your trust in the Living One who does not die”
A man came to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace
and said, “O Messenger of God, should I send my she-camel and put my trust, or should I tie it up and put my trust?” He said, “Rather, tie it up and put your trust”
The reasonable concept
Ibn Abi Al-Dunya narrated on the authority of Muawiyah Ibn Qurrah, who said: He met Omar Ibn Al-Khattab, may God be pleased with him
A group of people from Yemen said: Who are you? They said, “We are the trustworthy ones, He said: “Rather, you are the ones who rely on each other, The trustworthy person is the one who is throw grain into the ground and relies on God Almighty.”
- Whoever's concern is the world, God will separate his affairs for him and place his poverty before his eyes, nothing comes to him from this world except what was written for him, and whoever has the Hereafter as his intention, May God gather his affairs for him, place his wealth in his heart, and the world came to him willingly.
On the authority of Abdullah bin Masoud, may God be pleased with him, he said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said:
“Whoever is beset by misfortune and rely it on people, his poverty will not be filled, and whoever is beset by misfortune and rely it on God, then God will bring him provision soon or later.”
Allah says
{الَّذِينَ قَالَ لَهُمُ النَّاسُ إِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ جَمَعُواْ لَكُمْ فَاخْشَوْهُمْ فَزَادَهُمْ إِيمَاناً وَقَالُواْ حَسْبُنَا اللّهُ وَنِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ} [ال عمران:173]
{Those to whom the people said, “Indeed, the people have gathered against you, So fear them, and it will increase their faith, and they will say: “Allah is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs.” [Al-Imran: 173]
Who has the right to help from God Almighty?
On the authority of Abu Hurairah, may God be pleased with him, that the Prophet Muhammad, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: (There are three rights that God owes their help: Mujahid in the name of God, And the clerk who wants to perform, and the married man who desires chastity) [Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi]
We benefit from the following hadith:
1 - God - the Almighty - did not announce His assistance to some of His servants except in specific situations among them is far from this hadith (God helps the servant as long as the servant helps his brother)
2 - Helping the fighter in his path - Glory be to Him - and jihad has many types, the most prominent of which is fighting in the path of God, the least of which is honoring one’s parents or teaching or learning the religion. God has the right to help you as long as you strive for it.
3 - He who wants to get married for no reason other than because he wants to turn himself from forbidden things, If immorality occur, God Almighty has the right to help him.
4 - A creditor who owes a debt to someone else and intends to repay his debt, no to exploiting people and not paying the debt they owe. God has the right to help him when he sees his intention.
The characteristics of the trustworthy
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “Seventy thousand of my nation will enter Paradise without reckoning, they are the ones who do not ask for ruqyah: ((The spell is pronounced by the sick person, and if it is written and attached to him, it is an amulet.) They do not seek ironing, nor are they pessimistic, and they put their trust in their Lord.”
Allah says
{فَإِنْ تَوَلَّوْا فَقُلْ حَسْبِيَ اللَّهُ لا إِلهَ إِلَّا هُوَ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وهو رب العرش العظيم} [التوبة: 129]
{Then if they turn away, say: Allah is sufficient for me, there is no god but Him, In Him I put my trust and He is the Lord of the Great Throne} [Al-Tawbah: 129]
If they hold a high position in society, or turn their backs on you after taking over your matter, and yet they often come together to harm you, and you are on the right: you have the right at this time to throw your burden on God - the Almighty - You say the content of this verse is like a supplication to protect you from their plots, God willing, and in the purified Sunnah it is permissible for you to say it several times, and God is Most High and All-Knowing.
Taking control
They either turn their back on you as a metaphor for not supporting you again in life or a decision to hurt you, or they take a position that allows them to hurt you.
Allah says
{وَإِنْ جَنَحُوا لِلسَّلْمِ فَاجْنَحْ لَها وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ} [الأنفال: 61].
{And if they incline to peace, then incline to it, And put your trust in God} [Al-Anfal: 61].
The verse urges us that people may harm you, but there comes a point when you are not completely healed from the pain of their psychological and perhaps physical wounds, but they ask for truce and peace with you, so God Almighty commands you: If they do, then should you incline towards peace because it is good, and at that time you may expect treachery from them again, as God Almighty commands you: to move towards peace and in this time with fear, trust in God. You do not see the results, but rather you see some of their introductions, and the end is unknown.
It is known that this supplication is said seven times in the evening and morning remembrances (God suffices me, there is no God but You, Lord of the Great Throne), because it seems that life is never devoid of enemies.
Allah says
{* قالَتْ لَهُمْ رُسُلُهُمْ إِنْ نَحْنُ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِثْلُكُمْ وَلكِنَّ اللَّهَ يَمُنُّ عَلى مَنْ يَشاءُ مِنْ عِبادِهِ وَما كانَ لَنا أَنْ نَأْتِيَكُمْ بِسُلْطانٍ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ * وَما لَنا أَلَّا نَتَوَكَّلَ عَلَى اللَّهِ وَقَدْ هَدانا سُبُلَنا وَلَنَصْبِرَنَّ عَلى ما آذَيْتُمُونا وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُتَوَكِّلُونَ} [إبراهيم: 10-12)
{* Their messengers said to them: We are but human beings like you, but God bestows favor upon whomsoever He wills of His servants, and it is not for us to bring you any authority except by God’s permission, And in God let the believers put their trust* Why should we not rely on God when He has guided us to our paths, and we will certainly be patient over what you have harmed us, and in God let those who trust put their trust.” [Ibrahim: 10-12]
We benefit from the noble verse
When facing enemies
There is an ongoing dialogue between the Messengers and their families, and the Messengers’ families are accused of being human like them, so why do they deserve to be messengers from God, as they are not angels, for example, or of another race. From humans.
And their famous saying: Let us be patient with what you have harmed us, and in God, let the believers put their trust. Take the messengers out of the story and put yourself how much the dialogue ended when there was a clash between you and the people. It did not end in your favor, and harming your opponent began at that time. It is prescribed for you to trust in God, so let it be your motto and let us be patient despite what you have harmed us.
When misfortunes and distress come
God Almighty said:
{قُلْ لَنْ يُصِيبَنا إِلَّا ما كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَنا هُوَ مَوْلانا وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ} [التوبة: 51
{Say: “None will happen to us except what God has ordained for us. He is our Master. And in God let the believers put their trust.” [At-Tawbah: 51]
The prayer for leaving the house
(In the name of God, I put my trust in God. Oh God, I seek refuge in You from slip away or make someone to slip away,going astray or astray someone, or I become unjust, or do unjust to someone, or I become ignorant, or i ignorant to someone.
In Sunan Abu Dawud, on the authority of Anas bin Malik, may God be pleased with him, that the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said:
“If a man leaves his house and says: In the name of God, I trust in God, there is no power nor strength except in God, It will be said then: You have been guided, and you are sufficient, you protected, and the devils departed from him, Then another devil says to him: How can you have a man? “He has guided, sufficed, and protected”?
The types of the calamities
The first type of misfortune
There is no competition between you and God-like misfortune - your little son opened the window and fell out of it, and you took all the possible reasons. This is a direct disaster from God upon you, or money wasted on a project, while taking all precautions.
The second type of misfortune
Between you and the calamity is an adversary, that is, someone befalls you, a calamity such as when you are on your way with your young children, and a drunk driver causes an accident, God forbid, with one of your children. He dies.. This is between you and this disaster (Driver: drunk)
If some pessimism seeps into the souls (trust in God)
In the Sunan, on the authority of Abdullah bin Masoud, may God be pleased with him, on the authority of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, he said: “Pessimism is a polytheism, pessimism is a polytheism, pessimism is a polytheism, Ibn Masoud said: There is no one other than us, but God takes him away with trust.
We benefit from the noble hadith
Extreme fear of a certain thing is a form of polytheism, that is, taken with God, God (what scares you) is like someone who wears bracelets so that he does not get sick, and it is very expensive, People accept and buy it for fear of cancer or something similar, or like those who are afraid of a black cat, on the 13th of a certain year, or panic about a specific month.
The fruits of trust in God
That is why he was the master of the trustworthy, the master of the brave. In the two Sahih books, on the authority of Anas, may God be pleased with him, he said: The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, was the best of people, He encouraged the people, and the people of the city were terrified one night and went out towards the sound, The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, received them and was informed of the news, He was riding a horse that belonged to Abu Talha, naked, and around his neck was a sword, And he says: “You did not panic, you did not panic.” Then he said: “We found it as a sea.”
You must to know that there is a test for the trust
God Almighty will not allow you to say in front of yourself and in front of people that you depend on Him without experiencing this trust, which is (all people have abandoned you). In this case, you feel the value of trust, understand yourself, and inform people. Even if they were your witnesses, on the day the testimonies are given, they will bear witness against you that you were truly trusting in God.
The levels of trust in God Almighty
First rank (reliance with fear)
Allah says
(( فأوجس في نفسه خيفة موسى))
((He felt within himself the fear, Moses))
Internal fear may change some of the body's physiology, but it does not appear on the limbs like something that makes the heart anxious.
Second rank (obtaining part of the trust)
Allah says
قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّي قَتَلْتُ مِنْهُمْ نَفْسًا فَأَخَافُ أَنْ يَقْتُلُونِ وَأَخِي هَارُونُ هُوَ أَفْصَحُ مِنِّي لِسَانًا فَأَرْسِلْهُ مَعِيَ رِدْءًا يُصَدِّقُنِي إِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ يُكَذِّبُونِ
He said, “My Lord, I have killed a person among them, so I fear that they will kill me, and my brother Aaron is more eloquent than me in speech, so send him with me as a supporter that will confirm me. Indeed, I fear They will lie me.
Some disclosure of fears, not for that matter, but to ask for help from God Almighty.
The third place (confirmation from God Almighty)
Allah says
لَا تَخَافَا إِنَّنِي مَعَكُمَا أَسْمَعُ وَأَرَى (46(
Do not be afraid, for I am with you, hearing and seeing (46)
The fourth rank Psychological courage
Allah says
( فَلَمَّا تَرَاءَى الْجَمْعَانِ قَالَ أَصْحَابُ مُوسَى إِنَّا لَمُدْرَكُونَ (61) قَالَ كَلَّا إِنَّ مَعِيَ رَبِّي سَيَهْدِينِ (62
(And when the two groups saw each other, Moses’ companions said, “Indeed, we will overtake each other, (61) He said, “No. Indeed, with me is my Lord. He will guide me.” (62)
