Presuming good of Allaah and reliance upon Him

Shaykh as-Sa’dee’s daughter narrates:

My father رحمه الله was on the roof of the masjid repairing one of the drain pipes, when one of the passers by asked him:

“Why [are you fixing the drain pipe] O Shaykh?”

And he replied:

“We shall be doing the prayer for rain tomorrow.”

Shaykh as-Sa’dee’s daughter remarked:

And this was him presuming good of Allaah and his reliance upon Him.
