Practical Examples Of Having Faith In Allah
Any verse is supposed to be understood in the general frame of the religion. To have trust in God does not mean, not to use means, rather it means to have trust in His judgment after we use our means. To believe in God is a matter of the intellect, not of seeing and observation. The verse does not mean to have trust and that there is God. It means nothing. We can believe in Him for His being only when we are convinced and we can be convinced on the basis of our intellect. That is why God invites our intellect and logic, again and again, to make us believe in His being. Then comes trust. The story of Moses and the man of God in the chapter, al-Kahaf, tells that God intends to have good for us, whether that comes in the state of misfortune or fortune. We need to trust in His judgment.
