What applies to us are the words of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, ‘Whatever hardships you face on earth and in your souls, were written in the Book before the creation of souls. This is certainly easy for Allah.’” (57:22) رفوع - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (1/348))
