Ayah: 12

وَمَا لَنَآ أَلَّا نَتَوَكَّلَ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ وَقَدۡ هَدَىٰنَا سُبُلَنَاۚ وَلَنَصۡبِرَنَّ عَلَىٰ مَآ ءَاذَيۡتُمُونَاۚ وَعَلَى ٱللَّهِ فَلۡيَتَوَكَّلِ ٱلۡمُتَوَكِّلُونَ

12. Why should we not rely on Allāh when He has indeed guided us to the 'right' ways "of peace' we follow? We would bear with patience your persecution of us. On Allāh alone should the reliant rely5.

5. By faith we place our confidence and assurance in Allāh only. It makes us pray more and seek Allah’s direction and guidance. We can also rely on knowing what has happened in the past as others have walked by faith.
