The complain of Hell:
Narrated Abu Hurairah رضي الله عنه: The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said: “In very hot weather delay the Dhuhr prayer till it becomes (a bit) cooler because the severity of heat is from the raging of the Hell-fire. The Hell-fire of Hell complained to its Lord saying: O Lord! My parts are eating (destroying) one another. So Allaah allowed it to take two breaths, one in the winter and the other in the summer. The breath in the summer is at the time when you feel the severest heat and the breath in the winter is at the time when you feel the severest cold.” [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (536, 537, 3260) and Saheeh Muslim (617)]
It is said that the breath in the summer is “exhaling” and in the winter is “inhaling”

Trust in Allah. You may be in a lot of pain right now and going through many hardships, but hold on to Him, be patient, and remain grateful to Allah. Be optimistic and remember His promises.
-Al Mar-atus Saliha
Allah promises ease after hardship: "For indeed, with hardship [will be] ease." (Qur'an 94:6)
He assures us that He will not burden a soul beyond its capacity: "Allah does not burden a soul beyond that it can bear..." (Qur'an 2:286)
He also promises that those who are patient will receive a great reward: "Indeed, the patient will be given their reward without account." (Qur'an 39:10)

'Knowing A Person'
A man bore witness to ‘Umar Ibn Al-Khattaab so ‘Umar said to him: “I do not know you, but it does not matter that I do not know you. Bring me someone who does know you.”
A man among the peole said: “I know him.” ‘Umar asked: “What do you know about him?” He said: “He is of good character and is virtuous.”
‘Umar asked: “Is he your neighbour who you know by night and by day, and you know when he comes in and goes out?” The man said: “No.”
‘Umar asked: “Did h have any financial dealings with you which is the way to know whether he is God-fearing or not?” The man said: “No.”
‘Umar then asked: “Has he been your companion on a journey (safar), which is the best way to know whether he is of noble character and attitude?” The man said: “No.”
So ‘Umar said: “Then you DON'T KNOW HIM.”
[Sunan Al-Bayhaqi, 10/125 & Mawsoo’ah Fiqh ‘Umar, p. 731]

Which of the Favours of Your Lord will you Deny?
Ibn al-Dunya mentioned that the Prophet Dawud (Alayhis-Salaam) asked Allaah; "What is the least of your blessings?.”Allaah revealed to him, "O Dawud, take a breath." Dawud did so, and Allaah told him: "That is the least of My Blessings on you.”
[Extracted from the book 'Patience and Gratitude' by Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyyah]
In the quest of fulfilling our desires, are we overlooking and taking for granted the little blessings and favours in our life like security, fresh air, food, clean water, and good health!
Didn't the Messenger of Allaah said: "Whoever among you wakes up in the morning secured in his dwelling, healthy in his body, having his food for the day, then it is as if the world has been gathered for him." [Sahih al-Jami]
Shouldn't you reflect upon this verse,
فَبِأَىِّ ءَالَآءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ
“Which of the favours of your Lord will you deny?

Whoever wishes to attain the levels of the strangers, let him bear with patience the harm he will meet from his parents, his wife, his brothers and relatives.
If one were to ask, how can they harm me seeing as I am beloved to them and they to me?
It was said in reply:
You have opposed them in their love of this world and their great desire for it. They, in order to attain this world, do not care what they lose of their religion; if you follow them in this, they will love you; if you oppose them and instead traverse the path to the Hereafter by following the truth, they will behave coarsely towards you.
Your parents will be pained and angry at your actions, your wife will vexed at you and seek separation, and your brothers and relatives will rarely meet you.
You will be, amongst them, saddened and disturbed, and it is then that you will look at yourself with the eye of a stranger and you will understand the circumstances of all strangers like yourself, you will feel isolated from your brothers and relatives, and you will find yourself alone traversing the path to Allah.
Be patient for just a few days, bear the ignominy of this world for a few minutes, partake scarcely of this lowly life, you will find that this leads you to the Abode of well-being, its land is pure, its gardens resplendent, its fruits bountiful and its rivers sweet; therein will you have all the soul desires and all the eye takes delight in, therein will you abide for eternity.

Sincerity
Ibn al-Qayyim [رحمه الله] said:
❝Sincerity is not combined in the heart along with the love of being praised by the people, and being commended by them, and also having greed for what the people have, except like water being combined with fire.❞
[al-Fawaid, (No. 267)]
-
Ibn al-Qayyim [رحمه الله] said:
❝The different grades of doing actions for Allaah are in relation to what is in the heart from Emaan, sincerity, love and that what follows them.❞
[al-Waabil As-Sayib, (No. 22)]
-
Ibn Rajab [رحمه الله] said:
❝If the slave of Allaah perfects his Tawheed and his sincerity for Allaah and he establishes / fulfills all its conditions with his heart, and his tongue and his limbs then forgiveness for his past sins becomes obligatory.❞
[Jama' Al-Aloom, (2/417)]
-
Ibn Taymeeyah [رحمه الله] said:
❝Sincerity for Allaah is that a person's intent is for Allaah and intends everything for Him, causing fountains of wisdom to spring up from his heart on to his tongue.❞
[An-Naboowaat, (No. 147)]
-
Ibn Taymeeyah [رحمه الله] said:

Ibn Taymeeyah [رحمه الله] said:
❝Without doubt, the sincere person has tasted the sweetness of his worship for Allaah, this is what stops him from performing worship for other than Allaah, since there is nothing more sweet or more blessed for the heart than the sweetness of Emaan in Allaah the Lord of the worlds.❞
[al-Fatawa, (10/215)]
-
Ibn al-Qayyim [رحمه الله] said:
❝The sincere person is fortified by Allaah due to his worship of Him Alone, intending his Face Alone. He has humility for Him Alone, and hope in Him Alone, requesting from Him Alone, submissiveness for Him Alone and has a dire need of Him Alone.❞
