The servant is dependent on his Lord #2

Bukhari: 844
Prophet (ﷺ) used to say after every compulsory prayer, The servant will ask his Lord for all of his religiously and worldly needs, because the treasure of all things is in the hands of Allah. Allah says (interpretation of the meaning): “And there is not a thing but that with Us are its depositories, and We do not send it down except according to a known measure.” (Sura Al-Hijr 15:21) No one can withhold what Allah gives; And, no one can give what he resists.
لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيْكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ، اَللَّهُمَّ لَا مَانِعَ لِمَا أَعْطَيْتَ وَلَا مُعْطِيَ لِمَا مَنَعْتَ وَلَا يَنْفَعُ ذَا الْجَدِّ مِنْكَ الْجَدُّ
