سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ مَنْ يَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَهُوَ حَسْبُهُ فَقَالَ التَّوَكُّلُ عَلَى اللَّهِ دَرَجَاتٌ مِنْهَا أَنْ تَتَوَكَّلَ عَلَى اللَّهِ فِي أُمُورِكَ كُلِّهَا فَمَا فَعَلَ بِكَ كُنْتَ عَنْهُ رَاضِياً تَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ لَا يَأْلُوكَ خَيْراً وَ فَضْلًا وَ تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ الْحُكْمَ فِي ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ بِتَفْوِيضِ ذَلِكَ إِلَيْهِ وَ ثِقْ بِهِ فِيهَا وَ فِي غَيْرِهَا .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from someone else, from Ali Bin Asbaat, from Ahmad Bin Umar Al Hallal, from Ali Bin Suweyd, (It has been narrated) from Abu Al-Hassan<sup>asws</sup> the 1<sup>st</sup>, said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup> about the Words of Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:65#h3"><a href="/books/quran:65#h3">[65:3]</a></a> and whoever relies upon Allah, He is sufficient for him</span>. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The reliance upon Allah<sup>azwj</sup> has levels – from it is that you rely upon Allah<sup>azwj</sup> in your matters, all of them. So whatever He<sup>azwj</sup> Does with you, you should be satisfied from Him<sup>azwj</sup>. You should know that He<sup>azwj</sup> would not Keep away any goodness and Grace from you; and know that the Decision regarding that is for Him<sup>azwj</sup>. Therefore, rely upon Allah<sup>azwj</sup> by delegating that to Him<sup>azwj</sup>, and trust in Him<sup>azwj</sup> regarding it, and in other such matters’.
