Test and Patient

From Qur'an Surah Al-Baqara (The Cow) 2:155

وَلَنَبْلُوَنَّكُمْ بِشَيْءٍ مِّنَ الْخَوفْ وَالْجُوعِ وَنَقْصٍ مِّنَ الأَمَوَالِ وَالأنفُسِ وَالثَّمَرَاتِ وَبَشِّرِ الصَّابِرِينَ

And certainly, We shall test you with something of fear, hunger, loss of wealth, lives and fruits, but give glad tidings to As-Sâbirin (the patient ones, etc.).


Allah (swt) asked us to be patient over and o ver again in the Qur'an... Let us be patient in these desperate times... let us think of how we can change our situation for better... better yet, how we can change OURSELVES first.. let us do our part and than leave the rest to Allah (swt)...
