عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ مَرَّ بِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَنَا أُحْصِي شَيْئًا وَأَكِيلُهُ قَالَ يَا أَسْمَاءُ لَا تُحْصِي فَيُحْصِي اللَّهُ عَلَيْكِ قَالَتْ فَمَا أَحْصَيْتُ شَيْئًا بَعْدَ قَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَرَجَ مِنْ عِنْدِي وَلَا دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ وَمَا نَفِدَ عِنْدِي مِنْ رِزْقِ اللَّهِ إِلَّا أَخْلَفَهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ
Narrated from Sayyida Asma bint Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with them both), she says: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by me while I was counting and measuring something. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Asma! Do not count, otherwise Allah the Exalted will also start counting against you." Sayyida says: After this statement of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), whatever sustenance came to me and whatever was spent, I never counted anything, and whatever sustenance of Allah the Exalted was spent on any day, He granted its replacement.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … To give charity while relying upon Allah Ta'ala and to hope that He will grant the best reward for it—if a Muslim establishes this belief practically, then Allah Ta'ala continues to grant him according to his expectation.
The most impactful verse regarding reliance (tawakkul) upon Allah Ta'ala is: {وَمَنْ یَّتَّقِ اللّٰہَ یَجْعَلْ لَّہٗمَخْرَجًا۔وَّیَرْزُقْہُ مِنْ حَیْثُ لَا یَحْتَسِبُ وَمَنْ یَّتَوَکَّلْ عَلَی اللّٰہِ فَھُوَ حَسْبُہٗ} … And whoever fears Allah, He will make for him a way out. And He will provide for him from where he does not expect. And whoever puts his trust in Allah, then He is sufficient for him. (Surah At-Talaq: 2, 3)
