SERAHKAN SEGALA MASALAHMU KEPADA ALLAH | MUHAMMAD NUZUL DZIKRI

Summary

Lasting solutions to life’s problems come through Allah’s guidance and help—not by relying solely on one’s own intelligence, experience, logic, intuition, or emotions. Hardship can humble a person and reveal their dependence on Allah. The talk encourages responding to difficulties with humility and trust.

Key guidance and practices

• Rely on Allah, not yourself alone. The speaker describes tawfiq as Allah enabling a person and not leaving them to depend only on themselves.
• Make a considered decision, then trust Allah. Use sound knowledge and guidance, and follow what Allah commands, even when it is difficult or contrary to what you feel.
• Don’t let emotions, ego, jealousy, or anger take over. Feelings may be present, but they should not displace religious guidance or determine every response.
• Choose your words carefully. The speaker cites the teaching to speak good words or remain silent, especially when upset.
• Ask Allah for help and pray. The sermon recommends an evening supplication asking Allah to set one’s affairs right and not leave one to depend on oneself even for a moment:

“Ya Hayyu ya Qayyum, bi rahmatika astaghith. Aslih li sha’ni kullahu, wa la takilni ila nafsi tarfata ‘ayn.”

• Be patient through difficulty. The path to good outcomes may be demanding, so persevere rather than carrying problems alone.
