How to deal with pain?

At the time of Hardship, It’s man’s nature to be impatient but when he [true believer] knows the reason behind the hardship. He begins to display patience.

Remember! if you don't learn how to be patient, the pain will continue.

How to live a happy and successful life?

Mere ustad kehte theh ke khush haal zindagi ke sirf 3 usool hain.


1) Apne zindagi ke maqsad ko Janlena.

2) Apne oper aane wali musibat ki wajah ko samajlena.

3) Is musibat pe, sabar karne per, akhirat mein Allah swt ki taraf se jo umdah reward [paradise] milne wali hai us per pakka yaqeen rakha.


To Allah SWT us insaan ko dunya ke har ranj o gham se azaad kardete hain.


Aur Jo Insaan


1) Apne zindagi ke maqsad ko jaan Na saka.

2) Apne oper aane wali musibat ke wajah ko samaj Na saka.

3) Aur agar Akhirat per bhi iska Iman kamzoor raha.

To wo insaan dunya ki choti si choti takleef ko bhi bardasht kar nahi pata.


Kyunke ye naam ka musalman hai. Naam ka musalman hoon main, Isliye pareshan hoon main.




Test and Trials [ A ladder to Paradise ]

Trials that come in our life are not to destroy us; but it [trial] present an opportunity to earn paradise.


If Allah wants to do good to somebody, he afflicts him with trials, because every trial is a chance to win the pleasure of Allah and achieve the highest rank in paradise. If Allah loves someone, then only, he gives him a chance, through trial, to earn the pleasure of Allah and paradise.


Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "If Allah wants to do good to somebody, He afflicts him with trials." [Sahih al-Bukhari 5645]


Why did Prophet Muhammad PBUH, say, "If Allah wants to do good to somebody, He afflicts him with trials." Because every trial presents an opportunity to earn the pleasure of Allah and achieve the highest place in paradise.


If you think trial is a problem, then sure, this type of your thinking ruined your life. However, if you think this trial is an opportunity to earn the highest place in paradise, then your life will become more easier and you will succeed in both worlds. In shaa Allah.


Test and Trials in our life are not to destroy us, but it is a chance to be a patient. It is a chance to show the strength of our faith. It is a chance to get closer to Allah. It is a chance to achieve the highest rank in Jannah. Indeed it is a door to Jannah. Open it or close it, your choice.


Every trial is a gift. without trial we would not grow, without trial we cannot gain any valuable achievement, without trial we will not reach the highest place in Jannah, without trial we will not gain pleasure of Allah. Success starts with trial, not from the comfort zone. I know, my dear trial that Allah SWT is using you for my good, because Allah SWT tests him, whom he chose for his reward.


Trials are just like a ladder which takes us to paradise, but its steps are poverty, illness, loss and other aspects of calamities. It is very difficult to walk on this ladder but the destination is very beautiful at the end of your painful journey.


Alhamdulillah we are Muslims, believers of Allah, then why weep at a difficult time? When A hardship and suffering is a opportunity to develop relationship with Allah. It is a moment of test, a test that once you pass with patience, it will grant you reward more than you can imagine.


According to the Qur'an, every trial, such as illness, poverty, loss, or any other pain, has a purpose. Be strong and keep patience; a wonderful reward awaits you for your lofty action patience.


Allah SWT said in the Quran: "Those will be rewarded with the highest place [in Paradise] because of their patience.." (Quran-25:75).


Allahu Akbar that is the reward of TRIALS. It is difficult to be patient, but to waste the reward of patience is worse.


My brothers and sisters in Islam, please take the trial as an opportunity to win the pleasure of Allah and achieve the highest place in paradise. Please don't lose it, nothing is more expensive than a missed opportunity.


Just as you thank Allah for His blessings, you should also thank Allah for every trial because this is the only way to reach the highest place of Paradise.


Greatest reward comes with the greatest Trial

When you encounter various trials, big or small, be full of joy. They are opportunities to win the pleasure of Allah and achieve the highest rank in Jannah.


It was narrated from Anas bin Malik that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The greatest reward comes with the greatest trial. When Allah loves a people He tests them. Whoever accepts that wins His pleasure but whoever is discontent with that earns His wrath.” [Sunan Ibn Majah 4031]


It was narrated from Abu Umamah that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Allah says: ‘O son of Adam! If you are patient and seek reward at the moment of first shock, I will not approve of any reward for you less than Paradise.’” [Sunan Ibn Majah 1597]


And be patient, for God does not waste the reward of the good doers. [Quran 11 : 115]


If Allah wants to put you in a high position in Paradise.

If Allah wants to put you in a high position in Paradise, then he will test you with calamities. Allah tests him, whom he chose for his reward.


It is possible that it is written for a person that he has a rank in Paradise that he cannot attain by way of his actions alone. So Allah trials him with calamities, then he gives him the ability to endure that. So that Allah may by way of them elevate his station with Himself (subhanahu wa ta’ala).


Narrated Muhammad ibn Khalid as-Sulami: on his father's authority said his grandfather reported: He was a Companion of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: When Allah has previously decreed for a servant a rank which he has not attained by his action, He afflicts him in his body, or his property or his children. Abu Dawud said: Ibn Nufail added in his version: "He then enables him to endure that." The agreed version goes: "So that He may bring him to the rank previously decreed from him by Allah." [Sunan Abi Dawud 3090]


Perhaps Allah SWT has written a high position in paradise in my destiny; that’s why Allah SWT is testing me with this trial. Dear Trial, If you weren't, probably I would never have reached this place in Heaven. Thank you Allah, for the trials that make me closer to you and help me to achieve the highest rank in Jannah.


'Anas narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: "When Allah wants good for a slave, He puts him in action." It was said: "How does he put him in action O Messenger Of Allah?" He said: "By making him meet up with the righteous deeds before death." [Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2142]


The most tested people

It was narrated from Mus’ab bin Sa’d that his father, Sa’d bin Abu Waqqas, said: “I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, which people are most severely tested?’ He said: ‘The Prophets, then the next best and the next best. A person is tested according to his religious commitment. If he is steadfast in his religious commitment, he will be tested more severely, and if he is frail in his religious commitment, his test will be according to his commitment. Trials will continue to afflict a person until they leave him walking on the earth with no sin on him.’” [Sunan Ibn Majah 4023]


Allah ﷻ tested Nuh with a flood, Ibrahim with a fire, Ya’qub with blindness, Yusuf with separation, Ayyub with illness, Musa with tyrants, Harun with betrayal, Yunus with patience, Sulayman with kingdom and Dawud with war. They never said “WHY ME?”.


Because they know, Test and Trials are the opportunity to get closer to Allah and achieve the highest rank in Jannah.


Those who do not know the reason behind the calamity can never be happy in life. And those who know the reason behind the calamity are not afraid of the difficulties of life.


True And False Believer attitude during Trial

True believer see it [test] as an opportunity to win the pleasure of Allah and achieve the highest rank in Jannah.


False believer see it [trial] as a problem.


They ˹only˺ know the worldly affairs of this life, but are ˹totally˺ oblivious to the Hereafter. [Quran 30:7]


Allah SWT has made Trials easy for true believers.

True believer never suffer such feelings as worry, stress, pain, panic or fear in the face of such calamities. He [true believer] knows trials is a fantastic opportunity to get closer to Allah SWT and achieve the highest rank in Jannah. It is a moment of test, a test that once you pass with patience, it will grant you reward more than you can imagine.


Remember ! If your faith does not help to overcome stress and depression, so know that you are only a Muslim by name. I am a Muslim by name only; that’s why I am depressed. So, you need to reconsider on your quality of faith.


Focus

If you focus on the hurt you will continue to suffer. But if you focus on reward, which will come through patience you will feel happy.


When you live a strong purpose [which means living for hereafter], the difficulties of life are not disturbing you.

faith missing Reward of Trial


Jabir narrated that the Prophet (s.a.w) said: "On the Day of Judgement, when the people who were tried (in this world) are given their rewards, the people who were pardoned (in life), will wish that their skins had been cut off with scissors while they were in the world." This Hadith is Gharib, we do not know of it with this chain except through this route. Some of them have reported something similar to this Hadith from Al-A`mash, from Talhah bin Musarrif from Masruq. [Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2402]
