‘Sufficient for us is Allah, and an excellent
Guardian is He.’ (Holy Qur’an 3:174)
Holy
 Qur’an
 3:174

Those to whom men said, ‘People have
mustered against you, therefore fear them,’ but
this only increased their faith, and they said,
‘Sufficient for us is Allah, and an excellent
Guardian is He.’
Hazrat
 Khalifatul
 Masih
 V
 (aba)
 said:

…. Today the followers of the Promised Messiah respond in the
same vein when efforts are made to scare them. True
believers are not frightened of the scare-mongering of any
group, any legislative body or any organization. They are always
steadfast and firm on faith. They are beaten up, abused and
their lives are taken, but they are never in awe of anyone save
God, their response is always: ‘Sufficient for us is Allah, and an
excellent Guardian is He.’ The more the enemy tries them, the
more they turn to their Lord.
(Friday Sermon 3/5/2010)
Hazrat

 (aba):

A believer treads the path of taqwa and these are the people
who are blessed. They have fear of God and keep an eye on
their deeds, they try to honor the dues of God and the dues of
mankind. During their endeavors the Divine attribute of Al
Hasib is manifested to them as the Qur’an states: 
… And he who fears Allah — He will make for him a way
out, And will provide for him from where he expects not. And he
who puts his trust in Allah — He is sufficient for him. Verily,
Allah will accomplish His purpose. For everything has Allah
appointed a measure. (65: 3-4)

In
 God
 we
 trust?
Is
 Allah
 not
 Sufficient
 for
 His
 servant?

(39:37)
Thee
 alone
 do
 we
 worship
 and
 Thee
 alone

do
 we
 implore
 for
 help.

(Holy
 Qur'an
 1:5)
Hazrat
 Khalifatul
 Masih
 V
 (aba):

Allah provides for the righteous and opens up ways for
them of which they have no concept. A righteous
person’s trust is solely in Allah for any kind of provision
and when his trust is this complete, Allah too exhibits
His qualities of being Sufficient to the person. For a
believer, provision is not limited to things required for
material sustenance, rather it also includes spiritual
provision as well as wealth of knowledge and all
human faculties.
