The Shaykh : [Al-Ahzab 33:72] .
The questioner : It is a general term, so I said something that came to mind. I said that part of the traveler’s supplication is that he entrusts his family to Allah.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : So, consequently, it is a trust with Allah. So it seems he means your trust, i.e., your family whom you entrusted to Allah. Is that so?
The Shaykh : That is part of what he intends.
The questioner : Part.
The Shaykh : Yes.
