Reliance on Allah During Trials

Reliance on Allah During Trials

When you complain to people, we are burdening people with our emotions. The best thing is to hand it over to Allah, following Prophet Ya’qub, the father of Prophet Yusuf (peace upon them). “He said, ‘I only complain of my suffering and my grief to Allah, and I know from Allah that which you do not know.'” (Quran, Yusuf, 12:86)

This ayah reflects Prophet Ya’qub’s deep faith and reliance on Allah during his trials, particularly when he grieved the loss of his son. It serves as a reminder to turn to Allah in moments of distress and to place trust in His wisdom and plan.
