The Ruling on Relying on Other Than Allah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Does relying on other than Allah contradict tawhid (the oneness of Allah), O Shaykh?
Answer:
Yes, if he seeks from other than Allah what he seeks from Allah, then this contradicts tawhid (the oneness of Allah); because it is obligatory to rely on Allah, to place trust in Allah, to single out Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) for worship without anything else, and to make one’s supplication sincere to Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Yes.
