عنْ أَبي سَعيدٍ وأَبي هُرَيْرة - رضيَ اللَّه عَنْهُمَا - عن النَّبيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: «مَا يُصِيبُ الْمُسْلِمَ مِنْ نَصَبٍ وَلا وَصَبٍ وَلا هَمٍّ وَلا حَزَنٍ وَلا أَذًى وَلا غمٍّ، حتَّى الشَّوْكَةُ يُشَاكُها، إِلَّا كفَّر اللَّه بهَا مِنْ خطَايَاه»
144 - Perseverance during hard times
Abu Saīd and Abu Hurayrah narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
Whatever affliction, trouble, distress, grief, harm, or sorrow hurts a believer, even if it is merely a thorn, ensures that God will wipe away some of his sins for suffering it.

We shall certainly try you with a certain measure of fear and hunger, and with diminution of wealth, lives, and crops. But give glad tidings to those who remain patient in adversity; (155) who, when a calamity befalls them, say, ‘To God we belong, and to Him we shall return’.
(2: 155-156)
