Tawakkul is to know Allah and to belief Him in each facet of our journey by this life to our ultimate return to Him. Allah’s Messenger ﷺ stated, “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, research, and replicate on the names and attributes of Allah to nurture your relationship with Him and tawakkul in Him.
Al-Fudayl Ibn ‘Iyyaad stated: “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]
Muhammad Ibn Sireen stated: “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]
