Allah says that with every difficulty comes relief.
Allah says that with every difficulty comes relief. The life of the Hereafter is the real and endless one. We still have hope. This future, everlasting life is the one we should care about and make ready with good deeds. Don't regret what has passed; instead, thank I Allah for possessing the means of obtaining His forgiveness.
Happiness belongs to those who are patient while facing hardships and avoid disobeying Allah." "Oh Khadijah, I am not without hope, but I'm afraid that Satan will cause me to sin- then I will fall and lose everything." "I still have my gold wedding ring," his wife said. "Tomorrow I shall sell it and we will have money for a while. Almighty Allah will help us. Be confident that you will find a job, with Allah's help. Allah doesn't leave those who worship Him without hope of His compassion.
You will surely see how the future will brighten for you, and how generous Allah is to those who believe." With a sigh, her husband replied,” If you think so, I will believe you but what is the wisdom behind our hardship?" "Oh, Hassan," She cried. "Don't you know the Qur'anic verse: "And we will most certainly test you with what you fear, and hunger, and loss of property and lives. Therefore, give good news to the patient?" (2.157) "But when will this hardship end?" he asked.
"As soon as we pass our test successfully," she replied. "Through patience, prayer, and avoiding sinful ways of getting money, we shall succeed." At this point, the couple stopped talking and fell asleep, putting their trust in Allah. At dawn they awoke for their morning prayers. Afterwards, Khadijah began preparing breakfast and her husband sat down to recite some suras from the Qur'an. When the children woke up, their mother poured tea for them. One of the children asked for bread.
He said, “My friend and his brothers have eggs and butter every morning." His mother, feeling great pain in her heart, smiled, kissed him and said, "'Tomorrow, by Allah's will, you will have whatever you like." The child innocently asked, “Why do you say: 'By Allah's will'?" "Because," she replied, “It is Allah Who gives us everything and helps us to do our work. Without His will, we can't even breathe." "Mother, does that mean Allah will give us eggs and bread for breakfast?" “Yes, my son.
By the will of Allah it will happen." The father listened to his wife. He was greatly surprised by her strong faith. He began to feel hopeful and confident.
