Who Do You Turn To When You Are In Need? by Lukgaf(op): 7:44am On Jan 09
Who Do You Turn to When You Are in Need?

When you need money, who comes to your mind first? A wealthy man.

When hunger strikes, who do you think of? A friend or neighbour.

When you need a job, where do you run to? Politicians, connections, influence.

But how many of us first turn to Allah?

Where is our tawakkul?

Sadly, some even ask with doubt: “Is it really possible that Allah will do this for me?”
Yes — it is not only possible, it is certain.

Allah says:

وَمَا مِن دَابَّةٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ إِلَّا عَلَى اللَّهِ رِزْقُهَا
“There is no creature on earth except that its provision is upon Allah.”
(Qur’an 11:6)

And we say in our du‘ā:

اللَّهُمَّ لَا مَانِعَ لِمَا أَعْطَيْتَ، وَلَا مُعْطِيَ لِمَا مَنَعْتَ
“O Allah, none can withhold what You give, and none can give what You withhold.”

If Allah opens a door, no human can close it.
If He withholds, no connection, wealth, or influence can change it.

This does not mean we sit idle. Tawakkul is not laziness.
It means: rely on Allah first, trust Him completely, then take lawful steps knowing that the outcome is in His Hands, not in people’s pockets.

Let us correct our hearts.
Ask Allah before asking people. Trust Allah before trusting means.

May Allah strengthen our tawakkul and grant us provision with barakah.

I can't even relate that much now. They all come to me in need!
But before now, it has been my baby girl, and I'm so grateful for all she has done and I've been giving back without holding anything from her. She's a queen!!
