That means that O Muslims, devotees of the Prophet; you will be victorious under one condition: if you become true believers. We must place our complete trust in Allah and totally rely upon Him. If this condition is fulfilled—if our faith is true and certainty complete- then and only then will we be unimaginably successful اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه.

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب                      صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

Yaqīn is the essence of faith

Dear Islamic brothers! Remember this well. Believing in Allah and His Messenger صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and completely trusting what they command; this is the essence of our faith. If this trust weakens, our faith can fall apart.

It is an absolute necessity for us to trust the commands and statements of Allah and His Messenger صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. We must trust them more than we do our eyes, intellect, or experience.

Mufti Aḥmad Yār Khān رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه writes:

Placing trust in Allah and His Messenger صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم is the true essence of faith. Everybody believes something after seeing or hearing it, but to believe in something that is unseen or beyond understanding—simply because the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said to—this is a sign that true obedience is in that person’s heart.

In reality, faith is to have more trust in the words of the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم than in one’s senses—such as the eyes, ears, and intellect. If we see with our eyes that it is daytime, and our Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم says that it is night—then our eyes are wrong and the Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم is right.
