And will provide him from sources that they could not imagine.
And whoever puts their trust in Allah, then he will become sufficient for him.
And so he said, Hatim al-Assam, may Allah have mercy on him.
Hatim al-Assam, may Allah have mercy on him.
So I have placed my trust in Allah alone.
I remind myself and you that
we live in this world for a short time.
And then we go before Allah.
And therefore it is essential for us to make sure
that we do not do anything which displeases Allah .
Now, if you see the advice of Hatim al-Assam, may Allah have mercy on him.
And that is reason why we
go before Allah.

and world we talk about the self-made man. I am the master of my own destiny. You must
have heard these statements. These statements are kufr. Because Allah is the master of destiny,
not me. But Allah has given me some abilities and therefore I must have confidence and nothing wrong
with that. Now the finest example of this, and that is why I keep on saying all the time over
and over again that the seerah of Rasul is the tafsir of the Quran.
The seerah is the tafsir, explanation of the Quran.
The point that Hatim al-Aswami is making which is that you may have confidence in yourself but
ultimate confidence and trust is with Allah. This is illustrated in the story of Rasul

Until Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, radiyallahu anhu, he couldn't see Rasulullah sallallahu alaihi wa sallam in such a state of concern.
He said to him, Basti ya Rasulullah, your Rabb will not abandon you.
So does it mean he had no confidence in himself?

The issue of taqwa is to be concerned about the pleasure of Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala alone.

Allah is saying,
Wa ma yattakhi illa hai aja allahu makharaja.
The One who has taqwa, I will extract him from his difficulties.
I will help him.
I will help him.
Allah is saying, I will take him out of his difficulties.
Allah is not saying I will give him the power to get out.
