Meaning Of Tawakul
Yes you would with the correct mindset. So the tawakul is to do with that if I strong through this loss of wealth I will have learnt that it means I should obey God . And then if I lose wealth even after being pious I will be satisfied that my God has a better plan for me and this is where the trust lies
Sorry sister for not understanding and thanks so much for your help. But what does that have to do with trust. That’s just being God-conscious. Trust in common language means this: I tie my camel and say please look after it as I go and pray. Now I am trusting you that you don’t steal my camel. Once I have given this person my camel to look after to what end will I place my trust in God? If God sees fit he will cause an earthquake and kill my camel. So what am I trusting him for?
Yes, exactly. Tawakkul is realising from within that whatever the outcome was; whether i found my camel after i returned or whether I lost it for whatever reasons. Considering all the best and worst possible scenarios, it was good for me whatever happened in the end. But all of this isn’t just an attitude rather, this Tawakkul comes after a lot of reflection, reading God’s book, learn to look beyond the manifest of events. The above is also your answer for the second question. By knowing God. God is perfect. Even when He allows evil to exist that is also based on His perfect wisdom. An example of what you asked would be the entire Surah Yusuf. How did Yaqub (as) know that he will eventually meet Yusuf and that regardless of all that he has suffered, in the end he will find Yusuf eventually. Thats because he interpreted Yusuf (as)’s dream back in the day so he knew from Allah. That’s how you know that everything that happens is good for you. Only a true believer can see that because he looks at everything with the perspective of Quran i.e beyond the apparent.
No sister I mean what is the proof that the word tawakul is the name for this concept
Thanks so much sister and Umer bhai for all your help it’s a lot clearer for me now!
