Question:
He asks: What is the ruling on the one who says, "I have placed my reliance on Allah, and then on you"?
Answer:
No, one says, "I have placed my reliance on Allah alone, (Glorified and Exalted is He)." Reliance is not permissible except in the right of Allah (Mighty and Majestic)[Al-Ma'idah 5:23] But you may say, "I entrusted you," and not "I placed my reliance on you." I entrusted you to grow you and the like of that. Yes.

And upon Allah rely, if you should be believers."
