How much suffering a person should go through
before they get rewarded.
Does it have to be a great suffering
or anything?
Let's see what the prophet
says. But that's still talking about patience. Right?
How and when you get patience, reward for
patience,
how much of that pain that person should
go through before they get rewarded for their
patience? Hadith number 37 in in
the book of patients.
In this hadith, Abu Saidu Khudr Radlan Abu
Rayra
reported that the messenger of Allah, sallallahu alaihi
wa sallam, said,
never a believer is stricken with a discomfort
and illness,
anxiety,
grief,
or worrying,
or even the the the pricking of a
thorn, but Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, will experience
his sins or her sins on account of
his patience.
SubhanAllah.
How generous Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, with us.
That Allah aza wa that is so merciful,
so raheem, so compassionate.
He doesn't want you to go through any
kind of pain, any degree of pain
without being rewarded for it.
Any degree of pain.
And here, the hadith speaks about
physical pain, emotional pain,
worrying about the past, the future,
all of that stuff. He said,
is what? It's fatigue, which means what?
What you do for daily basis. Right?
Whether you're doing something as exercise
or you're just
minding your own business, doing your stuff at
home, or working, or moving things. And
so even while you're doing what you're supposed
to do, you're still getting reward for that.
Even carrying things that hurt your back, hurt
your arm, you know, makes you feel,
tired, you get reward for that.
You're getting reward even for doing your daily
things.
That's one thing. 2nd, qal,
wallah wasab.
What is
Fatigue can sometimes lead toward to illness.
So the prophet said, even when you're sick,
you're getting reward for getting sick.
Like, you know, when you start having headache,
stomach
ache, when your body start aching, getting fever,
all of these moments are also
opportunity for the sins to be forgiven.
If you endure that with patience, that's what
our point is.
What kind of whatever. What kind of illness
we're talking about? Any kind of illness.
Any kind of illness.
So you now talk about physical pain.
Now he says,
And he says, no ham, which means ham
is usually
is worrying about the future.
Hazan
is actually feeling sad or grieving grieving over
the past.
So
you're worrying about the market.
You're worried about the new school year. Summer
is coming. Where we're gonna what we're gonna
do, how this is happening. You're worrying about
that stuff. Or even worrying about what's happened
to our brothers and sisters make it easy
for them.
You sit down there and watching the news
and you start feeling worried about that situation,
and you worry for the living, then you
worry for the children,
Subhanallah, may Allah reward you for having that
concern for your brothers and sisters,
and make it easier than You Rabbi Alamin.
Even that, you're getting reward for
Wala Hazan, thinking about something happened to you
in the past.
Something you did and you regret.
A pain that you endured and you're still
thinking about it. All that stuff from the
past, you're still getting reward for just grieving
over what happened in the past.
He says not right now. Not even and
ada is basically
caused by others.
Ada,
now you're getting pain caused by other people.
Someone hurt
you, whether it's physical hurt or emotional hurt.
Now that pain, you cause it yourself.
Alham
is when you start thinking too much about
something and suddenly just kinda like dawns on
you completely
and shuts you down.
Like there's not the mental grief right now,
mental kind of an anxiety.
So that's now you're causing to yourself. But
the other is called by other people.
So even for these things, subhanAllah,
with patience,
you're still getting reward.
Even if you're if you're,
you know, if you're stuck with the with
the
thorn, with a bee,
hitting, you know, your toes and and the
and the table, the coffee table's a foot,
whatever that is. Anything of that nature, the
prophet says, even that level
of pain,
if you endure that with patience,
you shall get the reward for that.
Now what does it mean to say being
patient to Jamal?
Remember when we talked about patient, the level
the minimum degree of patience. What is that
exactly?
That means
to not to say anything wrong or do
anything wrong,
on the account of this event that happens
to you.
So if you stay quiet,
even even if you don't like it, you
don't have to accept it. But as long
as you don't say anything about it, because
you know this is coming from Allah Subhanahu
Wa Ta'ala,
you're gonna get your reward for patience. What's
better than patience is what?
Satisfaction, contentment in the heart.
What's better than that? Gratitude, shukr of Allah
even in the face of these hardships and
difficulty.
So what do we learn from this hadith
here? What we learn from this hadith, in
order for you to get the reward for
all these pains, occasions
of pain that we go through,
You have to endure that with patients.
Which means
if you don't,
are you gonna get the reward for it?
Like, if you, for example, hit your elbow
in the corner of of the of the
room or the door or whatever,
and then you start seeing the stars
in the middle of the day, and you
start cursing and cussing. And then it says.
Did you get the reward for patience?
You didn't cause you just lost it. Right?
If same thing, if someone
going through some fear for for something or
worry about something in the future.
And,
instead of doing this with patients,
they're going all over the place complaining about
what's happening in their lives, telling everybody.
So now they they they lost it. They
didn't do that with patients. Are they gonna
get their word for that? The answer is
no. So making sure in order for it
to do to get their word for it,
you need to make sure that you endure
that that pain with patience, of course.
Obviously,
it doesn't mean that you cannot complain to
other people who can help you, but we
we have talked about the meaning of patience.
We talked about the meaning actually of rida
and acceptance, and I hope inshallah will keep
that in our mind because this life was
designed to be a difficult jaman. As Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala
says, You've been cured with what? In a
state of kabad, which means always mukabbah, always
from one,
chore to another, from one effort to other
one. So you're gonna always be trying to
do your best, and that's that's why we
need to always remind ourselves to be patient
and being patient and patient. May Allah
give us that patience.
Hope us among those who reach the level
of gratitude.
Any question you might?
So anyone get to work for what?
If someone is stressing, keep stressing.
Do they get a word for that? Of
course. As long as they don't curse or
curse or say something bad about what they're
going through.
Yeah. It's okay to stress. There's no doubt
about it. Even, Yaqub alayhi salam in the
mashq bati wazni Allah, I only
disclose my my sorrow and grief to Allah
subhanahu wa ta'ala. And even he lost his
sight.
This is actually not just being unstressed.
It's called like almost like depression.
And subhanallah, he just lost his sight.
And that's why he he gained his sight
back again with the excitement that he got
from knowing that his son to because of
whom he lost his sight, subhanAllah, is still
there and is coming soon.
Yes.
Go ahead. Is is is Rida higher or?
Which one is higher, Ajamal? Rida or or
Shukur?
Do you guys remember?
We said shukr is higher
because first of all, you have facing
calamity and and inflections.
The is complaining too much. That's bad. And
then you have patience. Being quiet, not being
happy with it though. That's good. That's the
bare minimum required from you. Then you have
a rilla. So I'm being quiet, but my
heart as well, I'm okay with it. You
know, I know it's from Allah, so I'm
accepting it.
But being grateful,
even in the face of calamity,
alhamdulillah, Allah remembered me to test me among
all these people.
Now that's that's a another different level of
course. Yeah.
