The Prophet sal Allaahu Alayhi wa sallam said:
“Great reward comes with great trials. When Allah loves a people, He tests them, and whoever accepts it attains His pleasure, whereas whoever shows discontent with it incurs His wrath.”
(at-Tirmidhi — saheeh by al-Albaani)
So it’s not about the tests and trials in life.
We all go through them.
It’s about how we REACT to those tests and trials that makes the difference.
Do we spend these tests and trials complaining and crying, being pessimistic and feeling sorry for ourselves?
Or do we spend this time being patient and grateful...having good hopes with Allaah, relying on our Rabb and knowing He will take care of me?
Ibn Taimiyyah said:
“The majority of those who are tried so that their status may be raised, actually REDUCE in status due to their lack of steadfastness.”
May Allaah give us the taufeeq to be patient in our times of trouble and be pleased with His Decree. Ameen.
