What is the meaning of "putting one's trust in Allah as He should be truly trusted" as mentioned in the Hadith: "If only you were to put your trust in Allah as He should be truly trusted"? How can this meaning be apprehended and made a daily principle, and how can we reach the stage of submission to Allah's decrees, following the example of the Companions?
Trust in Allah (Tawakkul) is to rely on Allah Almighty while feeling that everything that occurs in the universe is by His decree and management. This does not preclude taking means (acting upon causes); rather, it is preferable, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, did in his emigration.
