وَ مَنْ یَّتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللّٰهِ فَهُوَ حَسْبُهٗؕ-

And whoever relies upon Allah, so He is Sufficient for him;

[Kanz-ul-Iman (translation of Quran)] (Part 28, Surah Al-Talaaq, Verse 3)

Allah Almighty states in Para 4, Surah Aal-e-Imraan, verse number 159:

اِنَّ  اللّٰهَ  یُحِبُّ  الْمُتَوَكِّلِیْنَ(۱۵۹)

Indeed, Allah loves those who have trust (in Him).

[Kanz-ul-Iman (translation of Quran)] (Part 4, Surah Aal-e-Imraan, Verse 159)

Sayyiduna Imam Muhammad Ghazali رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَلَيْه writes after these verses: ‘How grand is that rank upon which a person gains the love of Allah Almighty and he receives the guarantee of sufficiency from Allah Almighty. So, the person whom Allah Almighty blesses with sufficiency, loves him and favours him, he has achieved a huge success; as he who is beloved neither receives punishment nor is he distanced or veiled.’ (Ihya-ul-‘Uloom, vol. 4, p. 300)

At another place in the Holy Quran, those who have Tawakkul are described as complete believers. Thus, Allah Almighty states in Part 9, Surah Al-Anfaal, verse number 2:

اِنَّمَا الْمُؤْمِنُوْنَ الَّذِیْنَ اِذَا ذُكِرَ اللّٰهُ وَ جِلَتْ قُلُوْبُهُمْ وَ اِذَا تُلِیَتْ عَلَیْهِمْ اٰیٰتُهٗ زَادَتْهُمْ اِیْمَانًا وَّ عَلٰى رَبِّهِمْ یَتَوَكَّلُوْنَۚۖ(۲)

Only they are believers whose hearts fear when Allah is remembered, and when His verses are recited upon them their faith increases, and who trust only in their Lord.

[Kanz-ul-Iman (translation of Quran)] (Part 9, Surah Al-Anfaal, Verse 2)
