The answer

There is no objection to the phrase "Cast your burden upon Allah" if it is intended to mean relying on Allah and seeking His help in matters of livelihood and life, while still taking the necessary means. However, it is more appropriate to use phrases from the Sharia, such as "Trust in Allah." It must be known that relying on Allah does not mean abandoning the taking of means; rather, the believer relies on Allah and takes the means, while knowing that all affairs are in the hand of Allah.
