How do you put your trust in Allah?
If you have admitted that Allah alone works, and you believe that His Knowledge, His Power and His Mercy are perfect, that you are convinced that there is no power, knowledge or compassion beyond His, then inevitably your heart will surrender completely to Him Alone. In this case, you will never turn your attention to someone other than Him.
You must also show yourself satisfied with whatever Allah prescribes thereafter. In the event of theft, you should therefore not say to yourself: “If I had been more careful, I would not have been robbed. ". Complaining about what is happening indicates that one is moving away from trust in Allah.
It is important to be aware that what is prescribed to us is a therapy. Thus, when we find food, we should rejoice and say that it is a useful thing since Allah has prescribed it for us. We must also rejoice if we are deprived of it and tell ourselves that if Allah has deprived us of it, it is because it is harmful to us.
Whoever is not convinced of the Favor of Allah, as he is of the benevolence of the competent and charitable doctor towards his patient, his trust in Allah is invalid. Thus, the one who is for example the victim of a theft is satisfied with what is prescribed to him and forgives the thief out of compassion towards the Muslims.
