Full Meaning of Tawkil

Tawkil is an indirect Quranic name for boys that means “to trust in God”, “to rely on God”. It is derived from the W-K-L root which is used in many places in the Quran.

‘O my sons! Do not all of you enter [the city] by one gate; enter by separate gates. I cannot help you in any way against God; judgement is His alone. In Him I have put my trust. In Him let the faithful put their trust.’ (Quran 12:67)
