Reliance is a type of worship that most of us miss in our daily lives. Some of us are too dependent on our own selves. We worn out our body to work hard towards these "dreams", "status", and "fear" of poverty. We forget everything that is happening to us are all temporary meaning this will all come to pass and good things will eventually come. We fail to remember the beautiful attributes of Allah, that he is The Provider, The Best of Sustainer and the Most Generous.
I've read a post of a person who is worried about their debts and her husband spending too much on his parents. Muslims that are relying on bank loaning house, car and etc with riba (interest) or scamming people to build their "dream house" such lack of patience towards goals in this life. These worldly matters tend to make us vulnerable on disobeying Allah.
When Allah said:
"There is no moving creature on earth but that its sustenance lies with Allah."
[Quran 11:6]
"And your Lord is going to give you, and you will be satisfied."
[ Quran 93:5]
These reminders and inspirations from Allah are not here for us to do nothing and be lazy yet it's here to give us hope and keep us away from unlawful earnings.
We all have our weaknesses and it is fine to feel scared, worried but its also not wrong to be patient, hope and rely on Allah. We make mistakes still it should be corrected, we commit sins nevertheless sincere repentance is a must. We are not here to be perfect though we are here to be tested with our patience, obedience and sincerity.
Evidence for reliance is His saying, the Most High:
"Upon Allah, place your reliance if you are true Believers" [Quran 5:23]
"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.”
[Quran 65:3]
I ask Allah the Glorious, the Mighty, by His beautiful Names and Attributes to accept this as having been done sincerely for His sake alone. I ask Him to bring me its benefits during my lifetime and after my death. May those who read it, those who share it benefit from it also. Surely He, the Glorified, is Capable of all things. May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and Companions and whoever follows them in piety until the Day of Judgement.
