ALLAH IS SUFFICIENT FOR ME DUA (HASBIYALLAHU LA ILAHA ILLA)

“Nothing shall ever happen to us except what Allah has ordained for us. He is our Lord, Helper and Protector. And in Allah let the believers put their trust.” Surah Taubah Ayah 51

“I possess not for myself any harm or benefit except what Allah should will. For every nation is a [specified] term. When their time has come, then they will not remain behind an hour, nor will they precede [it].” Surah Yunus verse 49

It was narrated by Ibn ‘Abbas who said:

When (Prophet) Ibrahim (Abraham) was thrown into the fire, he said: “Allah (Alone) is sufficient for us, and, He is the Best Disposer of affairs.” So did Messenger of Allah Muhammad (ﷺ) when he was told: “A great army of the pagans had gathered against him, so fear them”. But this (warning) only increased him and the Muslims in Faith and they said: “Allah (Alone) is sufficient for us, and He is the Best Disposer of affairs (for us)”. [Al-Bukhari].

RECITING SEVEN TIMES ACCORDING TO HADITH:
The trouble can come in the belief in the hadith which says “if anyone says seven times morning and evening […] Allah will be sufficient for him against anything which grieves him, whether he is true or false in (repeating) them.”

The belief that in reciting this seven times whatever he desires will come true. This is obviously false, in the Quran it says “Every prayer is answered” which does not mean “I accept every prayer of you.”

In Surah Baqarah ayah 216 Allah through his infinite wisdom says,

“But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allah Knows, while you know not.”
