Trust in God

English book, p. 237

By Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

Being content with what God ordains Anas records the Prophet as repeating these words of AI-mighty God: “Certain of my servants are firm in their faith either because of poverty or because of affluence; because of sickness or because of health. Were I to reverse the conditions of their lives, their faith would be shaken to its very foundations. Certain of my servants seek to serve me in particular ways. This I prevent, lest pride taint their worship. I know what is in the hearts of My servants, and I ordain their affairs accordingly. “ (AL-TABARANI)
