Fiqh al-Adiyah wa-al-AdhkarAbd al-Razzaq ibn Abd al-Muhsin al-Badr

The first is His saying, Most High: “You alone we worship, and You alone we ask for help.”

The second is His saying, Most High: “In Him I have placed my trust, and to Him I turn in repentance.” 1.

The third is His saying, Most High: “So worship Him and place your trust in Him.” 2.

The fourth is His saying, Most High: “Our Lord, in You we have placed our trust, and to You we have turned in repentance.” 3.

The fifth is His saying, Most High: “Place your trust in the Ever-Living One who never dies, and glorify Him with praise.” 4.

The sixth is His saying, Most High: “In Him I have placed my trust, and to Him is my return.” 5.

The seventh is His saying, Most High: “Remember the name of your Lord and devote yourself wholly to Him—the Lord of the East and the West. There is no deity but Him, so take Him as your Trustee.” 6.

The servant’s need to worship Allah alone and associate nothing with Him in his love, fear, hope, reliance upon Him, humility, reverence, or seeking nearness is greater than the body’s need for its soul and the eye’s need for its light. Indeed, this need has no counterpart to which it may be compared. The servant cannot do without his true God in any circumstance, for a single minute, or even for the blink of an eye; and his utter dependence upon and need for Him

أحدها: قوله تعالى: ﴿إِيَّاكَ نَعْبُدُ وَإِيَّاكَ نَسْتَعِينُ﴾ . الثاني: قوله تعالى: ﴿عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَإِلَيْهِ أُنِيبُ﴾ ١. الثالث: قوله تعالى: ﴿فَاعْبُدْهُ وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَيْهِ﴾ ٢. الرابع: قوله تعالى: ﴿رَبَّنَا عَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْنَا وَإِلَيْكَ أَنَبْنَا﴾ ٣. الخامس: قوله تعالى: ﴿وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى الحَيِّ الَّذِي لاَ يَمُوتُ وَسَبِّحْ بِحَمْدِهِ﴾ ٤. السادس: قوله تعالى: ﴿عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَإِلَيْهِ مَتَابْ﴾ ٥. السابع: قوله تعالى: ﴿وَاذْكُرْ اسْمَ رَبِّكَ وَتَبَتَّلْ إِلَيْهِ تَبْتِيلاً رَبُّ المَشْرِقِ وَالمَغْرِبِ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ فَاتَّخِذْهُ وَكِيلاً﴾ ٦. إنَّ حاجةَ العبد إلى أن يعبد الله وحده ولا يُشرك به شيئاً في محبَّتِه، ولا في خوفِه، ولا في رجائِه، ولا في التوَكُّلِ عليه، ولا في التذَلُّلِ والتعظيمِ والتقرُّبِ أعظمُ من حاجة الجسد إلى روحه، والعين إلى نورها، بل ليس لهذه الحاجة نظيرٌ تُقاس به، فالعبدُ لا بدّ له من إلَهِه الحق في كلِّ حالة وكلِّ دقيقة وكلِّ طرفة عين، وضرورته وحاجته إليه
