sheikh, my question is how do I get my mind to fully be at tawwakul in every situation. I often find myself wondering in the negatives about my greatest fears coming true- depending on what’s happening in my life at that time. I would love to let my mind be at ease and leave everything in Allah’s hands,how do I achieve this?

If I sleep soon after praying isha (used miswak and with wudhu), will it satisfy the sunnah of using miswak before sleeping and sleeping with wudhu or do I need to make a separate wudhu nd miswak once more prior to gng to bed?

Yes this is fine. No need to make another wudu and use Miswak again right before going to bed, unless you broke your wudu after your Isha’ prayer. As for using the miswak, I don’t remember any authentic hadeeth stating that it should be used as a sunnah.
