give good news to the patient.[3] And when He says: And how many a prophet has fought with
whom were many worshippers of the Lord; so they did not become weak‐hearted on account of
what befell them in Allah's way, nor did they weaken, nor did they abase themselves; and Allah
loves the patient.[4] And when He says: The patient men and the patient women.[5] And when He
says: And be patient till Allah should give judgment, and He is the best of the judges.[6] Verses

by what We aid them with of wealth and children, We are hastening to them of good things? Nay,
they do not perceive. [8]
And were it not for that, it would not have been mentioned in the hadith: "Were it not for that the

cloth, so his head would never have ache." And were it not for that, it would not have been
mentioned in the hadith: "Surely, the world is not equal to a mosquito's wing in Allah's sight." And
