Trust Allah with What’s Out of Your Hands | Surah Al-Muzzammil

 

In this short clip from our Deeper Look Series of Surah Al-Muzzammil, Ustadh Nouman Ali Khan reflects on the words of Allah in Surah Al-Muzzammil (73:9): “So take Him as your Wakil.”

We often say we trust Allah, but when we’re hurt, slandered or misunderstood, that trust is tested. The Prophet ﷺ faced constant rejection, insult and pain. Yet Allah reminded him what’s beyond your control was never yours to carry. You’re responsible for effort, not for results.

Ustadh Nouman explains how "tawakul" isn’t passive. It means acting on what’s in your hands, your patience, your worship, your integrity and handing everything else to Allah. It’s the moment you stop chasing revenge, stop demanding outcomes and simply say: "He knows. He’ll handle it."

This is the freedom of true faith, the peace that comes from letting go.

Said Nursi: The Scholar Who Sought to Reconcile Faith and Modernity

 

Said Nursi (1877–1960), often known as Bediüzzaman—“the wonder of the age”—remains one of the most influential Islamic thinkers of the 20th century. Born in the village of Nurs in eastern Anatolia, Nursi lived during a period of immense political and social upheaval: the final years of the Ottoman Empire, the establishment of the Turkish Republic, and the dramatic secular reforms that followed. Through it all, he dedicated his life to demonstrating how faith and reason, religion and science, can reinforce rather than contradict one another.

A Life of Intellectual Resolve

Nursi’s early years were marked by extraordinary intellectual ability. By his teens, he had mastered multiple Islamic sciences, garnered recognition from established scholars, and developed a passionate commitment to social and spiritual renewal. Unlike many traditional scholars of his time, Nursi was intensely interested in the modern world—its scientific discoveries, philosophical trends, and political transformations.

He believed that Muslims needed an education system that integrated religious knowledge with modern scientific learning. His dream was the establishment of a university in eastern Anatolia—Medresetü’z-Zehra—that would bring together three strands of knowledge: religious sciences, natural sciences, and moral education.

The Risale-i Nur: A Movement of Ideas

Nursi’s most enduring legacy is the Risale-i Nur Collection, a vast body of Qur’anic commentary written during years of exile, imprisonment, and surveillance under early Republican authorities. Rather than writing in classical scholarly style, Nursi crafted accessible, spiritually uplifting works that spoke directly to ordinary readers.

The Risale-i Nur emphasizes:

• The harmony of faith and science
• The importance of inner transformation
• The rational basis of belief in God
• Moral responsibility in the modern world
• Hope, patience, and resilience amid hardship

These writings spread quietly across Turkey through handwritten copies, eventually giving rise to the Nur movement, a community devoted to education, spirituality, and social ethics.

Faith in a Secular Age

Said Nursi lived through a time when expressing religious devotion in public life became politically fraught. Yet he remained steadfast in his principle of non-violence and insisted on working through peaceful persuasion and example. For Nursi, the ultimate struggle was not political but spiritual—helping individuals strengthen their belief, refine their character, and cultivate trust in God.

His insistence on responding to oppression with patience, sincerity, and moral courage has made him an enduring symbol of spiritual integrity.

Why His Message Still Resonates

In an era marked by polarization, mistrust, and confusion, Nursi’s voice feels surprisingly contemporary. He invites readers to:

• Revisit faith with fresh eyes
• See science as a pathway to understanding God’s creation
• Stand firm in values without hostility or anger
• Build community through compassion and empathy

The global reach of the Risale-i Nur today—from Turkey to Southeast Asia, Europe, and beyond—reflects the timelessness of his message.

Said Nursi was more than a scholar; he was a bridge between worlds—between tradition and modernity, reason and revelation, intellect and heart. His writings continue to guide millions seeking clarity, purpose, and a spiritually grounded approach to modern life.
