ALLAH IS ENOUGH FOR THOSE WHO PUT THEIR TRUST IN HIM

 *ALLAH IS ENOUGH FOR THOSE WHO PUT THEIR TRUST IN HIM*:🚩🚩

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Seventy thousand people of my followers will enter Paradise without account, and they are those who do not practise Ar-Ruqyah* and do not see an evil omen in things, and put their trust in their Lord." 

[Sahih Al-Bukhari, 8/6472 (O.P.479)]

b) Narrated Abu Hurairah [radhi-yAllahu 'anhu]: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "An Israeli man asked another Israeli to lend him one thousand dinars. The second man required witnesses. The former replied, 'Allah is Sufficient as a Witness.' The second said, 'I want a surety.' The former replied, 'Allah is Sufficient as a Surety.' The second said, 'You are right' and lent him the money for a certain period. The debtor went across the sea. When he finished his job, he searched for a conveyance so that he might reach in time for the repayment of the debt, but he could not find any. So, he took a piece of wood and made a hole in it, inserted in it one thousand dinars and a letter to the lender and then closed (i.e. sealed) the hole tightly. He took the piece of wood to the sea and said, 'O Allah! You know well that I took a loan of one thousand dinars from so-and-so. He demanded a surety from me but I told him that Allah's Guarantee was sufficient and he accepted Your Guarantee. He then asked for a witness and I told him that Allah was Sufficient as a Witness, and he accepted You as a Witness. No doubt, I have tried hard to find a conveyance so that I could pay his money back but could not find, so I hand over this money to You.' Saying that, he threw the piece of wood into the sea till it went out far into it, and then he went away. Meanwhile he started searching for a conveyance in order to reach the creditor's country. One day the lender came out of his house to see whether a ship had arrived bringing his money, and all of a sudden he saw the piece of wood (in which his money had been deposited). He took it home to use for fire. When he sawed it, he found his money and the letter inside it. Shortly after that, the debtor came bringing one thousand dinars to him and said, 'By Allah, I had been trying hard to get a boat so that I could bring you your money, but failed to get one before the one I have come by.' The lender asked, 'Have you sent something to me?' The debtor replied, 'I have told you I could not get a boat other than the one I have come by.' The lender said, 'Allah has delivered on your behalf the money you sent in the piece of wood. So, you may keep your one thousand dinars and depart guided on the Right Path.' " 

[Sahih Al-Bukhari, 3/2291 (O.P.488B)]

🍀Many a times in life, we are faced with situations where we are extremely stressed out on a matter where we cannot put two and two together, as a result we find ourselves overwhelmed.  In such situations, or for any matter whatsoever, the best way out of the distress is to put our complete trust in Allah to deal with our issue.  This requires overcoming our fears and being reassured that we will be taken care of, because we have left the matter to Allah to deal with it.  This act of not over stressing and over worrying about things and leaving it to Allah, while only taking the basic means which are in our control, is highly encouraged and beloved to Allah as this shows how the slave renders himself helpless and leaves his affairs to Allah as his sole saviour from his problems.  Allah has mentioned in the Quran at various places that He loves the Mutawakkileen, ie those who put their trust in Him.

This especially holds good in the cases of people suffering from magic or evil eye, because they are in an extremely vulnerable situation as they are made to believe that their own loved ones have afflicted them.  This puts them in grave danger of severing the ties of kinship and in some cases, to compromise their imaan by resorting to the wrong means of treatment ending up in shirk.  Therefore, Allah particularly mentions about those who do not seek ruqya and put their trust in Allah.  We see in todays times how in the name of rukya people are being misled and misguided.  This refers to seeking rukya from others, not doing rukya on oneself from the proven adhkar of morning and evening and before going to bed.  Therefore, to put one's trust in Allah one has to overcome his fears and be patient, when he does this he sees the fruits of his tawakkul in Allah.

Allah puts us in situations where we are disappointed from everywhere and our only hope is Allah, such are the times we are tested for our trust in Allah.  If we prove ourselves to be perfect in our tawakkul, then our test is lifted and we turn out to be stronger individuals mentally and spiritually.

Allah explicitly says that whoever puts their trust in Him, then He is enough for them.  One should memorise this verse from the Quran and remind himself whenever he fears a thing or someone to harm him.

🏵At-Talaq 65:3

وَيَرْزُقْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَحْتَسِبُۚ وَمَن يَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ فَهُوَ حَسْبُهُۥٓۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ بَٰلِغُ أَمْرِهِۦۚ قَدْ جَعَلَ ٱللَّهُ لِكُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدْرًا 

And will provide for him from where he does not expect. And whoever relies upon Allah – then He is sufficient for him. Indeed, Allah will accomplish His purpose. Allah has already set for everything a [decreed] extent.

May Allah perfect our tawakkul in Him and remove our worries and anxieties from Us ...ameen.
