عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنه، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: «الْمُؤْمِنُ الْقَوِيُّ خَيْرٌ وَأَحَبُّ إِلَى اللهِ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِ الضَّعِيفِ،وَفِي كُلٍّ خَيْرٌ.احْرِصْ عَلَى مَا يَنْفَعُكَ،وَاسْتَعِنْ بِاللهِ وَلَا تَعْجِزْ، وَإِنْ أَصَابَكَ شَيْءٌ، فَلَا تَقُلْ: لَوْ أَنِّي فَعَلْتُ كَانَ كَذَا وَكَذَا، وَلَكِنْ قُلْ: قَدَرُ اللهِ وَمَا شَاءَ فَعَلَ؛ فَإِنَّ (لَوْ) تَفْتَحُ عَمَلَ الشَّيْطَانِ» رواه مسلم
Abu Hurayrah narrated that God’s Messenger (peace be upon him) said:
1. A strong believer is better and dearer to God than a weak believer, 2. but there is goodness in both. 3. Make sure to have what benefits you. 4. Seek God’s help and do not feel helpless. 5. If something happens to you, do not say: had I done this, such-and-such would have happened. 6. Rather, say: This is God’s will and whatever God wills shall happen. 7. Expressions of regret open the gate for
| Make ready against them whatever force and war mounts you can muster, so that you may strike terror into the enemies of God who are also your own enemies, and others besides them of whom you may be unaware, but of whom God is well aware. (8: 60)
Those of the believers who remain passive, other than the disabled, are not equal to those who strive hard in God’s cause with their possessions and their lives. God has exalted those who strive hard with their possessions and their lives far above the ones who remain passive. To each God has promised the ultimate good, yet God has preferred those who strive hard over those who remain passive with a mighty reward. (4: 95)
Do good, so that you may be successful. (22: 77)
You alone do we worship and to You alone do we turn for help. (1: 5)
Many a prophet has fought with many devout men alongside him. They never lost heart on account of what they had to suffer in God’s cause, and neither did they weaken nor succumb. God loves those who are patient in adversity. (3: 146)
They say: ‘Had we had any say in the matter, we should not have been slaughtered here’. Say: ‘Had you stayed in your homes, those of you who were destined to be killed would have gone to their deathbeds’. (3: 154)
No incident can take place, either on earth or in yourselves, unless it be recorded in a decree before We bring it into being – that is easy for God – (22) so you need not grieve for what you miss or be overjoyed at what you gain. (57: 22-23)
