One of the most fundamental pillars for Muslims is the concept of\u00a0tawakkul, which is often defined as trust and reliance in Allah.

\u201cSurely, Allah loves those who place their trust in Him\u201d
(Surah A\u2019li-\u2019Imran, 3:159)
The verse shows the fact that Allah S.W.T. revealed it as a path to His love and those who uphold it consistently are His beloved servants.
As a faithful servant, a Muslim must put his trust in Allah SWT. As shown in QS. Al-Maidah : 23.
\u0648\u064e\u0639\u064e\u0644\u064e\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u064e\u0651\u0647\u0650 \u0641\u064e\u062a\u064e\u0648\u064e\u0643\u064e\u0651\u0644\u064f\u0648\u0627 \u0625\u0650\u0646\u0652 \u0643\u064f\u0646\u0652\u062a\u064f\u0645\u0652 \u0645\u064f\u0624\u0652\u0645\u0650\u0646\u0650\u064a\u0646\u064e
” And put all your trust [in Allah], if you truly are believers.”
However, many people misunderstand the concept of\u00a0tawakkul. They see\u00a0tawakkul\u00a0as a passive, verbal characteristic which simply involves supplicating to Allah for what we want. There\u2019s an incident from Prophet Muhammad\u2019s (PBUH) life that shows a clear perspective on\u00a0tawakkul.
One day the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) noticed a \u2018bedouin\u2019 (desert Arab) leaving his camel without tying it, and he asked the man, \u201cWhy don\u2019t you tie down your camel?\u201d The \u2018bedouin\u2019 answered, \u201cI put my trust in Allah.\u201d The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) then said, \u201cTie your camel first, then put your trust in Allah.\u201d (Tirmidhi)
From Prophet Muhammad\u2019s (PBUH) response, it\u2019s obvious that this man didn\u2019t understand what trusting Allah was. He thought that tawakkul meant expecting Allah to take care of everything without the person giving any effort.
We can see another example during last Covid 19 pandemic. We can\u2019t just go out anywhere without putting on our mask or not having vaccine injection and then hoping Allah will look after us. It\u2019s not tawakkul, instead it\u2019s called \u2018tamanni\u2019, which is having false hopes in Allah.
The Prophet\u2019s (PBUH) advice demonstrates trusting Allah (tawakkul) isn\u2019t just a verbal and passive trait. Instead, tawakkul is an active trait, meaning that we show Allah our trust by taking action toward what we are trying to accomplish. In other words, we must do our part first with our actions before trusting that Allah\u2019s Divine help will come.
Tawakkul in Islam is not an absolute reliance on God\u2019s taqdir. To demonstrate true tawakkul, we have to do our part first. For example, even though we believe Allah is the Giver of Life (Al-Muhyi) and The Protector \/ Preserver \/ Guardian (Al-Hafiz), we have to take the necessary health precautions to keep ourselves from falling sick, such as washing our hands and exercising. We also believe Allah is The Provider (Ar-Razzaq), but we still have to work hard to create income. We don\u2019t expect money to just fall from the sky. Thus, if we have taken our action and then trust Allah with the results, Insha\u2019 Allah may Allah make us all people of\u00a0tawakkul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
