A Coincidence, Good Luck, and Leaving It to Allah

The questioner:
And he said: O Shaykh, may Allah open the way for you, I have not expressed what I intended with the following phrases: truth and reality.

The Shaykh:
As for "coincidence," if it means a rare thing, a rare occurrence, then there is no harm in it. However, if "coincidence" means that it is not decreed, that is unlikely to be on the tongue of a Muslim. "Coincidence" meaning without the decree of Allah is not permissible; this is disbelief in the divine decree. But this does not come on the tongue of a Muslim. They say "coincidence" meaning that it is a rare thing or something for which a person did not make calculations, and that is their intent, so there is no harm in it, if Allah wills. Likewise, "luck," as in "your luck is good" regarding what you obtained, or "your luck is good" regarding coming at this time, there is no objection to it, if Allah wills. What is the objection to this? Yes.

The questioner:
One.

The Shaykh:
Leave it to Allah, there is no harm. I say there is no objection. He says all of this is for the sake of reliance on Allah. "Leave it to Allah" means rely on Allah. Huh? "On Allah" is what you said. "On Allah," do not say it. Say "I did not expect that I would get it" or something like that. What is the reason for saying "on Allah"? Say "I did not expect that I would get it," "I did not expect that I would see you." As for saying "I did not expect, on Allah, that I would get it," this addition should not be mentioned, because it has no meaning. Yes.
