The questioner : May Allah reward you. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned the trust in the hadith: Sahih al-Bukhari 7276 The issue is his statement: Sahih al-Bukhari 7086 What is the reason for the removal of the trust?
The Shaykh : Yes, the intended meaning of this hadith, may Allah know best, is that a person sleeps with his heart upon the trust, then he wakes up and the trust has been removed from his heart, because he slept upon a trust in which he had no strength, so it was removed from his heart.
Or it can be said: he slept a sleep and the trust was removed from his heart, meaning: even after the sleep, and this is like the other hadith:Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2195Sahih (Darussalam).
It is not necessary that the trust be removed from his heart while he is sleeping; rather, he sleeps a sleep and then wakes up, and the trust is removed from his heart.
The questioner : And the reason?
The Shaykh : Because of what happened after he woke up.
