When we talk about tribulation when we talk about calamities and

00:00:03 --> 00:00:06

disasters, we can't measure them in terms of the outward for

00:00:06 --> 00:00:10

example, we can't say so and so must be very, very happy because

00:00:10 --> 00:00:12

he has a big house and a big car and a six figure salary, he must

00:00:12 --> 00:00:15

be great. And he's having a lovely life and so on. So over here,

00:00:15 --> 00:00:18

who's blind and poor and disabled in a wheelchair, he must be

00:00:18 --> 00:00:22

miserable. No, the tribulations are measured the way tribulations

00:00:22 --> 00:00:25

measured by how it affects the heart, how it affects the soul. So

00:00:25 --> 00:00:29

for example, the person who has the big house and the big car and

00:00:29 --> 00:00:32

the six figure salary, whatever, he might have sleepless nights,

00:00:32 --> 00:00:34

because he's always stressed, he's always worried about and what am I

00:00:34 --> 00:00:36

my investments? What about my properties? What about this? What

00:00:36 --> 00:00:40

about that, whereas the person who is blind and disabled or born in a

00:00:40 --> 00:00:43

wheelchair, he might just be content with a law, he might sleep

00:00:43 --> 00:00:45

well at night, and just think, Okay, this is what Allah wills for

00:00:45 --> 00:00:48

me and us, and he sleeps and he's patient and his Lord
