My beloved brothers and sisters, at times, we have enemies whom we don't know. And Allah subhanho wa Taala knows this. Sometimes we feel unsafe. Allah subhanho wa Taala says he will test us with a little bit of uncertainty, and he may test us with the issue of enmity coming from people we may know we may not know at times, we have hypocrites who might smile on your face, but they stab you on your back. Now what do I do? What does revelation have in it for me in terms of direction? What should I do? Because if I start worrying about such people, I will probably become depressed. I will become saddened I won't be able to progress in life. I need to carry on I need to get up every
morning with a fresh smile on my face. I need to have a fresh and renewed hope in the mercy of Allah subhanho wa Taala. To answer that question, Allah subhanho wa Taala beautifully puts it in Surah Nisa one long
walk I've been
working I've been, he knows.
Allah knows best who your enemies are. And Allah is sufficient for you, as a protector, and Allah is sufficient for you, as a helper. Who can there be better than Allah as a protector for you and I? Who can there be better than Allah as a protector or a god? One who is going to guard us and help us a helper? Who can there be better than Allah Subhana Allah
