Self-Confidence and Trust in Allah

Question n. 14 

Self-Confidence and Trust in Allah

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Question: On the one hand, in the sciences of education and psychology a great deal of emphasis is placed on self-confidence, but in Islamic teachings, ethics, and gnosticism (‘irfan) on the other hand, it is stressed that one must trust only in Allah (awj) and not in oneself. Is their a contradiction between the two perspectives?
