Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the ruling on saying, "You are our hope"?
Answer:
Our hope. It depends on the intention of the one who says it. If he intends that this servant is sufficient for them and provides what they want, that is invalid and shirk (associating partners with Allah). But if he says it out of good opinion, meaning he has a good opinion of his brother, then there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
