Surah At-Talaq (The Divorce)
This Surah was revealed in Madinah, and it has 12 verses and 2 sections

In the Name of Allah, The Beneficent, The Most Merciful

"And whoever fears Allah, for him Allah brings forth a way out, and gives him provision (of his needs from where he does not even imagine... 2/3)."

COMMENTARY: The Cause of Revelation of the Above Verse - Sayyidna Abdullah Ibn Abbas RA reports that 'Auf Ibn Malik Ashja'i came up to the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam and said that the enemies had arrested and kidnapped his son Salim. His mother is very anxious and he wanted to know what he should do. The Holy Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam ordered him and his wife to recite Laa Howla Wa Laa Quwwata Illaa Billah (There is no strength nor power but with Allah) abundantly. The husband and wife complied with the order. They recited the formula abundantly. It produced its desired effect.

One day the enemies became unmindful, and the boy somehow managed to escape and drove a herd of goats that belonged to them to his father. According to other narratives, he found one of their camels and he mounted it and drove the other camels to his father. The father reported the incident to the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam.

Another narration has it that he enquired from the Holy Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam whether the goats and camels the son brought with him were lawful for them. On that occasion, the verse (And whoever fears Allah, for him Allah brings forth a way out, and gives him provision from where he does not even imagine...2/3)

According to other versions of the report, when Sayyidna Auf Ibn Malik Ashja'i RA and his wife became very restless and anxious because of separation from the son, the Messenger of Allah Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam advised them to exercise Taqwa and recite abundantly Laa Howla Wa Laa Quwwata Illaa Billah (There is no strength nor power but with Allah). [All these narratives are cited in Ruhul-Ma'aani from Ibn Marduyah through the chain of al-Kalbi from Abu Saleh from Ibn Abbas RA.

This occasion of revelation indicates that this verse, though related to a divorcing situation in this context, has a general application for all circumstances.
