Expect the Best from Allah

A verse in the Book of Allāh caused me to stop and reflect for quite some time, and it deserves for me to stop at it:

“And it is He Who sends down the rain after they have despaired, and spreads abroad His Mercy. And He is the Guardian, the Praiseworthy.”  [ash-Shūrā; 28]

So, in my mind, I imagined how the people would panic over their families, livestock, and land due to the severe drought occurring in the midst of the oppressive, scorching heat. They had hope in Allāh and turned to supplication until they had no hope left, and were sure that they would perish.

...like the humps of camel

Tawhid of Allah

بسملله الرحمان الرحيم

We say concerning the tawhīd of Allāh that Allāh is One without any partners, not in His Lordship, Divinity or in His names and attributes.

So there is no creator besides Him and no lord besides Him. There is no provider, no master, and no one that disposes of the affairs in this existence except Him. We single out Allāh the Glorified in His actions, just as we single Him out in our actions as well.
