In Allah (SWT) We Must Trust
By: Habiba Ghanem
Many of us
know that when a group of idolaters wanted to attack our beloved Prophet
Muhammed (PBUH), eighteen year old, Ali Ibn Abu-Talib took his place and slept
in his bed while the Prophet (PBUH) escaped.
But did you
know that the Prophet (PBUH) saw the idolaters when he was leaving, and did you
know that they saw him too?
Yep that’s
right, they saw him but the All Mighty Allah paralyzed them and they weren’t
able to do harm to our Prophet (PBUH).
Meanwhile,
Ali (RA) who was expecting to get attacked, was sleeping peacefully. Ironic,
right? But according to Ali (RA), it was the best sleep that he ever had. When
the idolaters entered the house, they unveiled the cover of the bed only to
find Ali (RA) sleeping instead of the Prophet (PBUH).
The
idolaters could’ve killed Ali (RA), they were brutal people that were capable
of such a thing. Ali (RA) was after all the Prophet’s (PBUH) companion, cousin,
and son-in-law, killing him would be harming to the Prophet (PBUH). But they
couldn’t kill Ali (RA).
You, see
this event took place to test Ali’s (RA) faith. He loved the Prophet (PBUH), he
loved our religion, and he loved Allah (SWT), and to ensure his loyalty to the
deen he was tested.
Ali’s (RA) faith
and assurance that Allah’s plan for him was the best plan, alongside his
dependence on Allah (SWT), eased whatever fears he may have had. When he turned
to Allah (SWT) and put his trust in Him, he was able to pass the test. His
trust in Allah was the shield protecting him against the harm of the idolaters.
In this
life we are going to be tested over and over again. It’s important to stick to
your faith, and it’s important to know that whatever hardships you face, no
matter how hard or immense it may seem you must remember that Allah (SWT) is
greater, greater than anything imaginable. You must be sure and trust that
whatever Allah (SWT) sends your way that it’s for the best. Believe that
something good will come out of any hardship. Give your heart to Allah for
truly He is the only one that can ease it. It’s only when we put our trust in
Allah (SWT) that we will realize that nothing can harm us.
