´Narrated 'Abdullah bin Az-Zubair:` that Az-Zubair said: "On the Day of (the battle of) Uhud, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) wore two coats of mail. He tried to get up on a boulder, but was not able to, so Talhah squatted under him, lifting the Prophet (ﷺ) upon it, such that he could sit on the boulder. So he said: 'It (Paradise) is obligatory for Talhah.'"

Explanation:
1:
The fact that the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) wore two coats of mail is not contrary to reliance (tawakkul) and submission and contentment (taslim wa rida).
Rather, adopting means and resources is entirely in accordance with reliance upon Allah and contentment with His decree.
