I pray that this reaches you in the best of health and Eeman.
Hardship makes one turn humbly toward one's Lord. Someone once
said, "How Perfect is Allah, Who has elicited supplication through
hardship." It has been related that Allah tested one of His slaves in
a matter and then said to the Angels that it was, "In order to hear
his voice." meaning his supplications and invocations. Hardship
instils humility in the heart of the afflicted:
"Nay! Verily, man does transgress all bounds [in disbelief and evil
deeds, etc.], because he considers himself self-sufficient." Surah Al-
Alaq � Aayah 6.
People give comfort to, and pray `for, the afflicted. Thus during
times of hardship the believers come together in a spirit of
brotherhood. Hardship should make one grateful for having been saved
from that which is greater than the hardship with which he was
afflicted. Furthermore, hardship atones for sins. `When the slave of
Allah gains an appreciation of these facts, he will be thankful.
"Only those who are patient shall receive their rewards in full,
without reckoning." Surah Az-Zumar � Ayah 10.
Wasalaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu
