Question:
And he says, may Allah preserve you: Is a person who is afflicted, for example, with the deprivation of sustenance, is this a sign that he is disobedient to Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He?
Answer:
He should call upon Allah if something of sustenance is withheld from him, asking Allah to provide for him, and Allah is near and responsive. A person may be deprived of sustenance because of a sin he commits.
