Do not be afraid of your success and seek help from God
When God Almighty sent Moses, peace be upon him, to Pharaoh, the events were as follows:
) He said, “My Lord, I fear that they will deny you, and my chest will become constrained and my tongue will not speak.” So he sent for Aaron ( [Al-Shu’ara’: 12-13] The distress of heart that occurs, as Moses, peace be upon him, depicted it in his words, is their denial of him if they lied to him, especially with the defect that was in his tongue, and the evidence is that he asked for help from God in the beginning to complete his mission. Even if he knew in himself that they would disbelieve him, because he saw their character and knew his people well, and after asking God for help, he also asked to have a companion with him who would help him and support him. So he sent to Aaron, “And for a moment I want you to stand here.” The question is why did he choose his brother Aaron?? Because he was honest, sincere, advisable, and obedient to Moses, peace be upon him, in addition to his piety and faith. What is meant here is that if you want to succeed and are not afraid of failure in your mission, you must do the following:
- To ask God for help sincerely.
- To complain to God of your weakness and fear.
- To ask From God, who supports you and helps you in life.
If you do not find a human being to help you, what do you do?? I have despaired of people, as no one helps anyone except those who have mercy on God. I did not complete my studies and there were no signs of success. I work in a place that I do not see as appropriate to achieve my success, or perhaps in reality I only work for the day’s livelihood... Where is my home and where is my wife... Do I wonder if I will be rich and sit on the seashore enjoying that atmosphere? And the drawings...
