Having Good Thoughts of Allāh and Having Him with Us
The shaikh, Dr. Muḥammad ibn Ghālib Al-ʿUmarī, may Allāh protect him, said:
Allāh the All-High says: “I am [to] my slave as he holds Me to be.”¹
So hold good thoughts of your Lord that He forgives those who repent, responds to those who call upon Him, and gives those in need [what they need].
Remember and mention Him frequently, and you’ll have His special Maʿīyyah–[His being with you, while He is above His throne, with His knowledge and special care]– protecting you, taking care of you, and coming to your aid.
O Allāh, we can’t change [our situation], and we have no power [to do so], unless You [ordain that and help us]. O Allāh, don’t leave us to ourselves for even the flash of an eye.

يَقُولُ اللهُ تعالى:" أَنَا عِنْد ظَنّ عَبْدي بِي، وَأَنَا مَعَهُ حِين يَذكُرنِي".
فأحسنوا الظن بربكم، أنه يغفر للتائب، ويستجيب للداعي، ويعطي المحتاج.
وأكثروا من ذكره تنالوا معيته الخاصة، يحفظكم ويرعاكم وينصركم.
اللهم لا حول ولا قوة لنا إلا بك، اللهم لا تكلنا إلى أنفسنا طرفة عين.— د.محمد بن غالب العُمري (@m_g_alomari) November 15, 2021
