Ibn Mas’ud
narrated: "Testimony of faith (to bear witness that there is no god
except Allah and Mohamed is His Messenger) expiates any sin except
trust, man will be brought on the Day of Judgment, if he was killed in
Allah`s Cause, it is said: discharge your trust, he would say: ‘How can I
as the worldly life finish?’ Then the trust will be represented for him
at the bottom of hell forever and will be asked to bring it."
Beloved brothers and sisters, trust is not alien to the souls, but it is a nature (fitra)
that the human has had a natural deposition for knowing it. Sometimes
he agrees to it, other times, he doesn’t, and every one of them will be
rewarded. Hudhaifa ibn Al- Yaman reported: "The Messenger of
Allah (blessing and peace be upon him) foretold to us two prophetic
traditions. I have seen one (being fulfilled), and I am waiting for the
other. He (blessing and peace be upon him) told us, Amana (the trust)
descended in the innermost (root) of the hearts of men (that was
innately in their hearts, by Fitrah, or pure human nature). Then the Qur’an was revealed and they learned from the Qur’an and they learned from the Sunnah.
Then the Prophet (blessing and peace be upon him) told us about the removal of the amanah. He said: "The man would have some sleep, and amanah would be taken away from his heart leaving the impression of a faint mark. He would again sleep, and amanah
would be taken away from his heart leaving an impression of a blister,
as if you rolled down an ember on your foot and it was vesicle. He would
see a swelling having nothing in it. The people would enter into
transactions with one another and hardly a person would be left who
would return (things) entrusted to him (and there would look like an
honest person) till it would be said: 'In such and such tribe there is a
trustworthy man.'”
How
Allah loves the one who has trust, who renders back it to himself, his
family, his work and everything, really no one deserves it except the
trustee. The Prophet (blessing and peace be upon him) said: "Whoever
hopes that Allah and His Messenger love him, let him say the truth when
he speaks and discharges his trust entrusted to him."
Trust is the standard of the serious successful work when combined with the strong, the trustworthy. "Verily, the best men for you to hire is the strong, the trustworthy."
It is the trust that the Prophet (blessing and peace be upon him) did bid farewell to his companions and army saying: "I entrust your religion and your actions and your seal deeds to Allah." It is the trust that increase the position of Abu ‘Obaida ibn Al-Jarah, the prophet said: "Verily, there is a trustworthy person for every nation, Obaida Ibn Al-Jarah is the trustworthy person of this nation." The trust includes question, discussion and reward, the man has bore it, so he should entrust it, the Prophet said: "All
of you are shepherds and each of you is responsible for his flock. A
man is the shepherd of the people in the house and he is responsible. A
woman is the shepherd of the house of her husband and she is
responsible. Each of you is a shepherd and each is responsible for his
flock."
