Tawakkul is to know Allah and to trust Him in every aspect of our journey through this life to our final return to Him. Allah’s Messenger ﷺ said, “Allah said, ‘I am to my slave as he thinks of Me’ (i.e., I am able to do for him what he thinks I can do for him).”
[Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī, bk. 97, hadith 130, no. 7505]
Learn, study, and reflect on the names and attributes of Allah to nurture your relationship with Him and tawakkul in Him.
Al-Fudayl Ibn ‘Iyyaad said: “The souls are arrayed armies. So those that know one another will unite with one another, and those that don’t know one another will be divided. And it is not possible for a person of the Sunnah to support a person of innovation except due to hypocrisy.”
[Sharh Usool ‘Itiqaad Ahlis-Sunnah Wal-Jamaa’ah, 1/138]
*Always defend your Muslim brother*
Muhammad Ibn Sireen said: “If something reaches you about your brother, then search for an excuse for him. If you do not find an excuse for him, then make an excuse for him.”
[Al-Jaami’ Li Shu’ab Al-Eemaan, 14/441]
