Salafs sayings

Abu ad-Dardaa narrated [Saheeh Muslim, No.6588]: The Messenger of Allaah said: «No believing servant supplicates for his brother behind his back (in his absence), except that the Angels say: "The same be for you too".»
al-Imaam an-Nawawee comments [Riyaadh as-Saaliheen #1494]: This hadeeth makes it evident that one who prays for someone in his absence also stands to benefit from it because the angel appointed for the task of praying for those who pray for others will pray for him, saying, "O Allaah! Grant him also the same which he has asked for others".

Saying About Someone that He is Confident

 


Question:

What is the ruling regarding saying about somebody that he trusts himself or that he is confident about himself? Does this go against the supplication, And dont make me depend on myself, not even for the blinking of the eye?
Answer:

There is nothing wrong in the sayings you mentioned, because the speaker means that he is sure and convinced about something. No doubt, mans confidence varies according to the occasion: sometimes he is sure about something, sometimes he is hopeful about something, sometimes he is beset with doubts, ect. So this saying does not go against the Hadith that you mentioned, especially when we consider that someone may be confident about himself by Allaah Almighty and because of what Allaah Almighty has given him, in terms of knowledge, ability, or other gifts.
