Tafsir of Surah Ibrahim 14:12

﴿وَمَا لَنَا أَلَّا نَتَوَكَّلَ عَلَى اللَّهِ وَقَدْ هَدَانَا سُبُلَنَا وَلَنَصْبِرَنَّ عَلَىٰ مَا آذَيْتُمُونَا وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُتَوَكِّلُونَ﴾

Translation of the meaning

And why should we not rely upon Allāh while He has guided us to our [good] ways. And we will surely be patient against whatever harm you should cause us. And upon Allāh let those who would rely [indeed] rely."

Imam Ibn al-Qayyim

فالعبد آفته إما من عدم الهداية، وإما من عدم التوكل. فإذا جمع التوكل إلى الهداية فقد جمع الإيمان كله.«مدارج السالكين بين منازل إياك نعبد وإياك نستعين» 2/127
