Transliteration:( Allazeena sabaroo wa 'alaa Rabbihim yatawakkaloon )
"Those who are patient and place their trust solely in their Lord [145]." (Kanzul Imaan Translation)
Patience and trust in Allah are two of the greatest virtues for a believer, especially when facing trials such as migration, persecution, or poverty. This verse was revealed when some believers, after receiving the command to migrate from Makkah, expressed concern:
“Where shall we go? We have no homes, no arrangements for shelter or sustenance.”
In reply, Allah teaches a timeless lesson: Put your trust in Him alone, for He is the Provider and Protector. True reliance is not in resources or planning but in knowing that Allah controls all affairs.
This verse confirms that patience (ṣabr) and reliance (tawakkul) are not passive traits—they are active demonstrations of faith. The verse calls believers to stay firm and hopeful, even in uncertainty, as Allah never abandons those who trust Him completely.

(29:59) who remained steadfast[97] and put their trust in their Lord![98]
97. “Who are patient: who remained steadfast in faith in the face of hardships and afflictions and losses and persecutions; who have endured the consequences of the faith and have not turned away; who have seen the advantages and benefits of abandoning the faith and have not been lured away by them; who have seen the disbelievers and the wrongdoers prosper in the world and have not cast even a stray glance at their wealth and splendor.”
98. “In their Lord put their trust: who did not put their trust in their possessions and their business and their clans and tribes but in their Lord; who were prepared to fight every power and endure every danger for the sake of their faith only on the basis of their trust in their Lord irrespective of the worldly means, and left their homes if their faith so demanded; who trusted their Lord that He would not let go waste the rewards of their faith and good works, and were sure that He would succor His believers and righteous servants even in this world and bless them with the best rewards in the Hereafter as well.”
