‎Shaykh Ibn Bāz رحمه الله: With a hardship there are 3 affairs;

‎• Being patient with it - It's obligatory
‎• Being pleased with it - It's Sunnah
‎• Being grateful for it - It's most virtuous/best

‎[مجموع الفتاوى ١٣/٤١٣]

لَبَّيْكَ اللهُمَّ لَبَّيْكَ
‏لَبَّيْكَ لَا شَرِيْكَ لَكَ لَبَّيْكَ
‏إِنَّ الْحَمْدَ وَالنِّعْمَةَ
‏لَكَ وَالْمُلْكَ لَا شَرِيْكَ لَكَ

‎ʿĀʾishah رضي الله عنها reported Allah's Messenger ﷺ as saying:

‎There is no day when God sets free more servants from Hell than the Day of ʿArafah. He draws near, then praises them to the angels, saying: "What do these want?"

‎[Muslim]

‎Ibn Kathīr رحمه الله said: “It is the custom of this worldly life that it runs away from the one who seeks to possess it and goes after the one who runs away from it.”

‎(Tafsīr Ibn Kathīr 197/4)

Shaykh Ibn Qayyim (RH) said: I and my brother- Shaykh Al Islam- completed reciting the Qur'an 80 times while we were in the last prison. We then started for the 81th round until the Shaykh Al Islam reached this verse:

Sura 54 - Ayat 54-55

"Verily, The Muttaqun (pious), will be in the midst of Gardens and Rivers (Paradise). In a seat of truth (i.e. Paradise), near the Omnipotent King (Allah, the All-Blessed, the Most High, the Owner of Majesty and Honour).

And just as Shaykh Al Islam Ibn Taymiyyah RH finished reciting these last two verses of Surah Qamar, his soul was taken from him

May Allah have mercy on him and Ibn Qayyim.

Fussilat 41:54
أَلَآ إِنَّهُمۡ فِى مِرۡيَةٍ مِّن لِّقَآءِ رَبِّهِمْۗ أَلَآ إِنَّهُۥ بِكُلِّ شَىۡءٍ مُّحِيطٌۢ

Verily! They are in doubt concerning the Meeting with their Lord? (i.e. Resurrection after their deaths, and their return to their Lord). Verily! He it is Who is surrounding all things!

Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said:

‎The person who conceals the faults of others in this world, Allah would conceal his faults on the Day of Resurrection.

‎Sahih Muslim 2590
‎ Book 45, Hadith 93

Prophet Mohammad (ﷺ) said,

‎ "No doubt, it is better for any one of you to cut a bundle of wood and carry it over his back rather than to ask someone who may or may not give him."

‎Sahih al-Bukhari 2074

Al-Balad - 90:11

Arabic
فَلَا ٱقۡتَحَمَ ٱلۡعَقَبَةَ

English - Mohsin Khan/Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
But he has made no effort to pass on the path that is steep.

English - Ibn Kathir
The Encouragement to traverse upon the Path of Goodness

Allah said,

فَلَ اقْتَحَمَ الْعَقَبَةَ




But he has not attempted to pass on the path that is steep.

Ibn Zayd said,

"This means, will he not traverse upon the path which contains salvation and good.

Then He explains this path by His saying,

وَمَا أَدْرَاكَ مَا الْعَقَبَةُ

ފަހެ، ދަތިކަންހުރިމަގަށް އެ އިންސާނާވަދެ، އެމަގުން ނުހިނގީ ކީއްވެގެންހެއްޔެވެ؟

Dhunya is full of battles. Contentment is only when we take our first step in Jannah, bi idnillah.

So don't be afraid of losing anything for the sake of Allah, or to gain His pleasure. Because when you gain His rahmah and His love, that's all you'd ever want in this life.

You gotta be passionate about Tawheed and kufr bit taghut. Passionate about wala and bara. Passionate about taking haqq and leaving batil. Passionate about love for the Messanger of Allah ﷺ. Passion more intense than a fire and more enduring than a mountain.

My Lord! Grant me wisdom, and join me with the righteous

Quran 26:83

Al-Isra' - 17:28

Arabic
وَإِمَّا تُعۡرِضَنَّ عَنۡهُمُ ٱبۡتِغَآءَ رَحۡمَةٍ مِّن رَّبِّكَ تَرۡجُوهَا فَقُل لَّهُمۡ قَوۡلًا مَّيۡسُورًا

English - Mohsin Khan/Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
And if you (O Muhammad SAW) turn away from them (kindred, poor, wayfarer, etc. whom We have ordered you to give their rights, but if you have no money at the time they ask you for it) and you are awaiting a mercy from your Lord for which you hope, then, speak unto them a soft kind word (i.e. Allah will give me and I shall give you).

English - Ibn Kathir
وَإِمَّا تُعْرِضَنَّ عَنْهُمُ ابْتِغَاء رَحْمَةٍ مِّن رَّبِّكَ

And if you turn away from them and you are awaiting a mercy from your Lord,

`If your relatives and those to whom We have commanded you to give, ask you for something, and you do not have anything, and you turn away from them because you have nothing to give,

تَرْجُوهَا

for which you hope,

i.e. a mercy from your Lord,

فَقُل لَّهُمْ قَوْلاً مَّيْسُورًا



then, speak unto them a soft, kind word.

meaning, with a promise.

This was the opinion of Mujahid, Ikrimah, Sa`id bin Jubayr, Al-Hasan, Qatadah and others

“Every misfortune has an end, just like how the morning comes after the dark night. Even if it looks like it has no solution, Verily with every hardship comes ease.”
