called emotional wisdom. That's why the Prophet sallallahu Sallam said calamities happen to everyone, we all have problems, that is part of life
in South Africa, but indeed man was created in the state of cabinet, you know problems all the time. What is sad Is this my brothers and sisters, some of us can only see their problems, they can only live their problems, what happens is this problems are inevitable. They are inevitable, you cannot escape them. Problems are not capable, you have no choice. Problems are not scalable, but misery is optional.
Misery is optional, meaning that it is not the problem that should worry you, but rather, how do you react to that problem? is a greater question to ask. So now part of what Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is teaching us is the emotional wisdom. Do not be under shackles, because of the type of way that you choose to react to the problems that are going around, liberate yourself of this, live a frame and problems that are happening. And like we said the other day, if your problem can be solved, then don't worry. And if your problem cannot be solved, then worrying will not help you.

and he was crippled. And he just had all sorts of problems. And he's sitting down, and he's saying Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah. So someone passed by him and said,

isn't a strong man is indeed he who has control over himself when he is angered.
When we go again, emotional wisdom, liberate yourself of this, and then the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam goes on to say, of these shackles, his urges and Castle, in ability and laziness, in ability, what it is, is that you have the desire, you have the will, but you have no means case and laziness is when you have the means but you do not have the desires and the possessions at all.
