Question:
Is there a difference between tawakkul (reliance upon Allah) and tawakkul (passive reliance)?
Answer:
Tawakkul (passive reliance) is the opposite of tawakkul (reliance upon Allah). Tawakkul (passive reliance) is when everyone throws the responsibility onto someone else, saying, "It is up so-and-so," while he clears himself. No, this is tawakkul (passive reliance), and it is not permissible.
