أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السَّلَمِيُّ،
قَالَ، وَقَالَ الْأُسْتَاذُ أَبُو سَهْلٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ: " التَّوَكُّلُ أَنْ لَا يَخْطُرَ بِقَلْبِكَ نَافِعٌ وَلَا ضَارًّ غَيْرُهُ، وَأَنْ تَسْتَلِمَ لِكُلِّ حَالٍ يَرِدُ عَلَيْكَ، وَلَا يَضْطَرِبَ قَلْبُكَ مِنْهُ " وَقَالَ: " التَّوَكُّلُ قَطْعُ الطَّمَعِ عَنِ الْخَلْقِ وَتَرْكُ طَلَبِ الْحِيلَةِ مِنْهُمْ " وَقَالَ: " التَّوَكُّلُ التَّطَاوُلُ إِلَى الْأَلْوَانِ وَمَا فِيهَا بِعَيْنِ النَّقْصِ، وَالرُّجُوعُ إِلَى مَنْ لَا يَلْحَقُهُ النَّقْصُ بِحَالٍ "

Machine translation, not reviewed
He said: And the Ustādh Abū Sahl Muḥammad b. Sulaymān said: "Reliance on God (tawakkul) is that no benefiter or harmer comes to your heart other than Him, and that you submit to every state that comes upon you, and that your heart is not disturbed by it." And he said: "Reliance on God is cutting off hope in creation and abandoning the seeking of schemes from them." And he said: "Reliance on God is looking at the colors [of this world] and what is in them with the eye of deficiency, and returning to Him whom deficiency never reaches in any state."
