{وَفِي السَّمَاءِ رِزْقُكُمْ وَمَا تُوعَدُونَ} [الذاريات:22] The concept of rizq is so beautiful. Even when you eat a piece of fruit, it was always written for you. From the moment it grew from a tree, it went through all these people and travelled all this way until it was in your hands. It was always meant to be yours. There is a famous hadith that reports on how every human shares the same initial stages of life - starting from being in the womb for 40 days, and then into a clot of blood for the same period, before phasing into a lump of flesh for also the same amount of time. Afterwards, the hadith states that: "ثم يرسل إليه الملك فينفخ فيه الروح، ويؤمر بأربع كلماتٍ: بكَتْبِ رزقه وأجله وعمله، وشقي أو سعيدٌ" صحيح البخاري و مسلم. “Then (Allah) sends to it an angel who is tasked to breathe soul into it. (The angel) is then commanded to write down four matters: the writing of the (developing child’s) rizq (sustenance), his life span, his actions, and whether he will be truly happy or miserable ” Sahih Bukhari & Muslim.
