What should a female student do who agreed to distribute 200 Islamic دعوية pamphlets within her college in one day, then discovered their poor style and ineffectiveness, especially after the academic year ended and she was unable to distribute all of them? She feels the weight of this trust and fears not fulfilling it, and she wonders how to deal with them and clear her conscience. Can she ask another female student to distribute them?
Fulfilling a promise to spread good is commendable. There is no blame on someone who is unable to fulfill it or is prevented from doing so. The remaining pamphlets can be returned to the young man if you are certain that the female students cannot accept them, or they can be distributed later, or you can delegate sisters to distribute them, or distribute them in another location. The trust mentioned in the verse is the trust of religion. Regarding material trusts, one is not sinful for their loss if one did not neglect them. A dream does not cause anxiety, nor are commands taken from it. Gabriel descends with God's revelation upon the Messengers, and he may bring punishment and fight alongside the Muslims. It cannot be definitively stated that what was seen in the dream was Gabriel, for angels take on various forms, and this can only be known through revelation.
