وَلَـنَبۡلُوَنَّكُمۡ بِشَىۡءٍ مِّنَ الۡخَـوۡفِ وَالۡجُـوۡعِ وَنَقۡصٍ مِّنَ الۡاَمۡوَالِ وَالۡاَنۡفُسِ وَالثَّمَرٰتِؕ وَبَشِّرِ الصّٰبِرِيۡنَۙ‏

We will certainly test you with a touch of fear and famine and loss of property, life, and crops. Give good news to those who patiently endure.

Qur'an 2:155

لا تبكي على ما مضى، فالله لو كان خيراً لك لبقي.

Don't cry about what's gone because if it was good for you, it would've stayed.

Ways of Strengthening Patience

Knowledge

The element of knowledge is necessary in order to realise the benefits of following the commands of Allah and the sense of happiness and fulfillment that one may attain by following them; and to understand what it is in the forbidden things that causes harm, imperfection and evil.

When a person realises that, and adds strong willpower, the desire for spiritual achievement and the wish to live as a complete human being (as opposed to an animal-like existence), then it will become easy for him to attain the quality of patience.

The bitterness of patience will become sweet and the pain of patience will become joy.

وَمَا تُقَدِّمُوا لِأَنفُسِكُم مِّنْ خَيْرٍ تَجِدُوهُ عِندَ اللَّهِ ۗ إِنَّ اللَّهَ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ بَصِيرٌ.

“—and whatever good you put forward for yourselves - you will find it with Allah. Indeed, Allah of what you do, is Seeing.”

Ibn Mas'ud (رضي الله عنه) said,

كونوا [...] تعرفون في أهل السماء، وتخفون على أهل الأرض

"Be [...] known to the people of the sky [i.e., Angels] and hidden from the people of the earth."

[مختصر منهاج القاصدين]

The Prophet ﷺ said:

"When something disturbs the peace of your heart, give it up."

Facts about the Bridge of Sirat...

1. Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) will be the first to cross it. 2. It's thinner than a hair, and sharper than a sword. It's placed right above Jahanam 3. Not a single person will be able to escape it, every soul must cross it. Except the disbelievers, their destination is automatically Jahannam 4. True believers will pass it like lightning or wind, some will crawl, some will slip and fall, some will be snatched and thrown into the fire 5. Whoever was slow to obey and worship Allah will pass over it slowly with fear.

“God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, And wisdom to know the difference. اللهم، امنحني السكينة لقبول الأشياء التي لا أستطيع تغييرها والشجاعة لتغيير الأشياء التي أستطيع تغييرها ، والحكمة لمعرفة الفرق بينهما.”

Riyad as-Salihin, The Book of the Remembrance of Allah, Book 15, Hadith 41

Chapter: The Excellence of Gathering in which Allah is Remembered

Abu Hurairah and Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with them) reported:

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "When a group of people assemble for the remembrance of Allah, the angels surround them (with their wings), (Allah's) mercy envelops them, Sakinah, or tranquillity descends upon them and Allah makes a mention of them before those who are near Him."
