Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Salih, may Allah preserve you. The questioner, 'Amir al-Yamani from Raymah Governorate in Yemen, says: We thank the Holy Qur'an Radio, for a number of people that only Allah can count have benefited from it. In fact, I know of people who have become callers to the Sunnah, and the cause of that is your blessed radio. So we ask Allah, the Most High, the All-Powerful, to raise the ranks of our scholars and everyone who works in this blessed radio in this world and the Hereafter, and to increase them in guidance and piety, and to reform their offspring. Then he says: I hope you will present two questions of mine to Your Excellency the Shaykh Salih, may Allah preserve him and bless him and his work. The first question: Due to the multitude of trials and the changing of circumstances in our country, Yemen, we find that many people have been afflicted with despair and hopelessness. So will you tell us about trust in Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), and how a Muslim achieves it in his life?
Answer:
We ask Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) to guide us and you, and to make clear to us and you the matters of our religion. Hold fast to the correct religion, call to it, and raise your children and those under your authority upon Islam. Seek help from Allah and be patient, and you are upon good, if Allah wills. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
