The Bounty Hunters

I believe that most of us have experienced the situation where we're so financially strapped, that we worry about how to pay for next semester's fees, or our children's tomorrow's feeding, or the rent for the next month? These and so many similar experiences are enough to give us the stressful impact as it is given by any major fallouts like disaster or death.

The 24 hours that we have in a day, we occupy our minds with endless planning on what we can do to make sure we survive the next morning. We are restless until we are rest assured that our life tomorrow will be taken care of. This kind of planning makes it so worrisome for us if things go wrong, and when the clock goes near to 12 midnight, but we still couldn't figure out the ways.

Our behaviors are very much common to what they call as, the bounty hunter... Bounty hunters never rest until they capture whatever it is that they need to capture.

But, as a Muslim, do we realize that there is one simple answer for all this tribulation. Take a look at this verse,

 

One part of this verse that has been named as the 1000 Dinar Verse, states how a resource can be very unlikely that Allah can provide to His slaves. It is also stated that the slaves who give entirely up to Him will always be sufficient and there's always a way out for every problem. Bounty is up to Him. This doesn't mean that we should stop making efforts, it just means that we should believe and stop being overly worried, because Allah will never run away.

So, the next time if we're strapped for money, we're worried whether we're able to pay for next semester's fee, or concerned that our children are unfed, or the payment for the rent next month, then remember this...

Allah provides rezqi...

P/S: I would like to specially thank my friend, Islam for his reminder on this... It's a huge slap in the face...
