"Allah is the best provider"

There are times and situations in a person's life when, if he opposes any injustice, he fears losing his means of livelihood. Thus, some fear losing their position, while others fear finding it difficult to earn their livelihood. Satan tries to sow the seeds of temptation in his heart, which are based on this fear. This prevents the servant from remembering the instructions and promises of Allah Almighty in this regard.

Allah Almighty says in the Holy Quran: “There is on earth every living creature whose sustenance is upon Allah” (Surah Hud, verse 6). This verse tells us that Allah Almighty is the guarantor of the sustenance of every living creature on earth. Therefore, this promise also covers humans. There is no doubt that whatever Allah Almighty guarantees, no one can prevent it from reaching its owner. If someone loses his position or finds it difficult to earn sustenance, this does not mean that his sustenance has been cut off. Because his sustenance is not tied to his position. When Allah Almighty wants to fulfill His promise and deliver sustenance, He also opens the ways for this.

Again, in the Holy Quran, Allah Almighty says: “And how many a creature is there that cannot earn its own livelihood. Allah provides for them and for you” (Surah Al-Ankabut, verse 60). There are many creatures that cannot gather their own livelihood, cannot find it, and cannot worry about tomorrow. But despite this weakness, Allah Almighty provides it with His provision and makes it easy for it to find it. So, O people, it is Allah who actually provides for you. Put your trust in Him for your provision.

Again, in the Holy Quran, Allah Almighty blesses us with the following: “Whoever fears Allah, He will make a way for him, and provide for him from where he does not expect.” (Surah At-Talaq, verses 2-3). That is, whoever does not cross the lines set by Allah and follows His commands and prohibitions, Allah Almighty will bring him out of his difficult situation. He will provide for him from sources he did not expect or count on.
