2. Piety and Belief in Allah:
وَمَنْ يَتَّقِ اللَّهَ يَجْعَلْ لَهُ مَخْرَجًا ﴿٢﴾
وَيَرْزُقْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَحْتَسِبُ ۚ2. "...And whoever fears Allah - He will make for him a way out,
3. And will provide for him from where he does not expect.
(Surah Talaq, chapter 65, verses 2-3)By exercising Taqwa, Allah (S.W.T) will provide for the Allah fearing person Rizq from where he does not expect. The Rizq in this context refers to anything one needs, whether any mundane or any need of the Hereafter.
Many people take the meaning of Fearing Allah wrongly, in actual sense it means, being conscious of Allah! Before taking up any step, remembering that Allah (S.W.T) is watching us, even if we are alone!
A person of Taqwa, will fear doing sins due to the consciousness of Allah!
Backbiting, gossiping, lying, back answering to parents and elders, missing our Salawats or any other obligations and many other acts of sins, be it major or minor, be it concealed or revealed, we all leave it, for the sake of Allah Azzawajal!
We stop doing wrong in order to please Allah, before doing anything we think twice if it's lawful or not, everything for the sake of Allah!
Allah (S.W.T) has promised the righteous believers in this verse that He will ease every difficulty of theirs and provide for them all their needs from sources they never expected or thought about.
An Incident:
Sayyiduna Ibni Abbas (R.A) reports that Auf ibni Malik Ashjai (R.A) came to the Messenger (S.A.W.S) and said that the enemies had arrested and kidnapped his son Salim. His mother is very anxious and he wanted to know what he should do. Then Rasoolullah (S.A.W.S) ordered him and his wife to recite لا حَوْلَ وَلا قُوَّةَ إِلا بِالله [There is neither strength nor power but with Allah (S.W.T)] abundantly. The Husband and Wife complied with the order. They recited the formula abundantly. It produced its desired effect. One day Allah (S.W.T) caused the enemies to become unmindful and the boy somehow managed to escape and drove a herd of goats that belonged to them to his father. The father (R.A) reported the incident to the Messenger of Allah (S.A.W.S). Another narration has it that he also inquired from Nabi (S.A.W.S) whether the goats the son brought with him were lawful to them. On that occasion the verse, "And whoever fears Allah, for him Allah brings forth a way out, and gives him provision from where he does not even imagine..." was revealed.According to other version of the report, when Sayyiduna Auf Ibni Malik Ashja‟i (R.A) and his wife became very restless and anxious because of separation from their son, the Messenger of Allah (S.A.W.S) advised them to exercise Taqwa and recite abundantly لا حَوْلَ وَلا قُوَّةَ إِلا بِالله [There is neither strength nor power but with Allah (S.W.T)].
Allah (S.W.T) says in the Quran: "If the people of the towns had but believed and feared Allah, We should indeed have opened out to them (All kinds of) blessings from heaven and earth..." (Surah Al-A'raf, chapter 7, Verse 96)
Allah (S.W.T) says in the Noble Qur'an in Surah Ale-Imran, chapter 3, verse 102:
"O you who have believed, fear Allah as He should be feared and do not die except as Muslims [in submission to Him]."*****^^^*****
Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu. May Allah (S.W.T) cure all those who are ill, grant everyone good health so that we make the most of it in His obedience. May Allah (S.W.T) ease everyone's problems and heal all the pains. May Allah (S.W.T) forgive all our sins and guide us all towards the straight path.
May Allah (S.W.T) make our hearts sound and keep us all steadfast on our Deen! May He (S.W.T) increase us all in Imaan and Taqwa and change our hearts towards our religion and His obedience!
May Allah (S.W.T) change the hearts of my every reader through His words.
