🕌 Ar-Razzaq in the Qur’an

Allah mentions His name and His promise of provision throughout the Qur’an:

1. Allah created and He provides

“Indeed, Allah is the Provider (Ar-Razzaq), the Possessor of firm strength.”
(Surah Adh-Dhariyat, 51:58)

Provision is not in the hands of employers, businesses, or people — it comes directly from Allah.

2. There is no creature except that Allah provides for it

“There is no creature on earth except that its provision is upon Allah.”
(Surah Hud, 11:6)

This ayah removes anxiety — your rizq is guaranteed.

3. Allah increases rizq for whom He wills

“Allah extends provision for whom He wills and restricts it.”
(Surah Ar-Ra’d, 13:26)

Rizq rises and falls as a test, but never disappears.

4. Tawakkul brings provision

“And whoever relies upon Allah — He is sufficient for him.”
(Surah At-Talaq, 65:3)

Trusting Allah opens doors no effort alone can open.

🌙 Ar-Razzaq in the Sunnah (Hadith References)

The Prophet ﷺ taught many lessons about Allah’s provision:

1. Rizq is written before you are born

The Prophet ﷺ said:
“Your sustenance is written when you are in your mother’s womb.”
(Bukhari & Muslim)

Your rizq was decided long before your efforts began.

2. Tawakkul increases rizq

The Prophet ﷺ said:
“If you trust in Allah as you should, He will provide for you like He provides for the birds — they leave their nests hungry and return full.”
(Tirmidhi)

Provision comes after trust and movement, even if small.

3. Charity does not decrease wealth

“Charity does not decrease wealth.”
(Muslim)
Giving increases blessings, opportunities, peace, and divine support.
