A Quranic expression (sura Al 'Imran 173), meaning: Allah suffices us and He is the best trustee to whom the matter is entrusted; the believers said it and their faith increased; it is said in hardship and trust in Allah.
When to say it? When fearing people or news
﴿ٱلَّذِينَ قَالَ لَهُمُ ٱلنَّاسُ إِنَّ ٱلنَّاسَ قَدْ جَمَعُوا۟ لَكُمْ فَٱخْشَوْهُمْ فَزَادَهُمْ إِيمَـٰنًۭا وَقَالُوا۟ حَسْبُنَا ٱللَّهُ وَنِعْمَ ٱلْوَكِيلُ﴾
« Those to whom hypocrites said, "Indeed, the people have gathered against you, so fear them." But it [merely] increased them in faith, and they said, "Sufficient for us is Allah, and [He is] the best Disposer of affairs." »
Surah آل عمران : 173
