As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa raḥmatullāhi wa barakātuh. A‘ūdhu billāhi min ash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm. Aṣ-ṣalātu wa s-salāmu ‘alá Rasūlinā Muḥammadin Sayyidi l-awwalīna wa l-ākhirīn. Madad yā RasūlAllāh, madad yā Sādāti Aṣḥābi Rasūlillāh, madad yā Mashāyikhinā, dastūr yā Shaykh Abdullāh al-Fā’iz ad-Dāghistāni, Shaykh Muḥammad Nāẓim al-Ḥaqqānī. Madad. Ṭarīqatunā aṣ-ṣuḥbah wa l-khayru fi l-jam‘iyyah.

A‘ūdhu billāhi min ash-shayṭāni r-rajīm. Bismillāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm, “Li yabluwakum ayyukum ahsanu `amalān,” (Qur’ān 67:02). Allah says, “To test you [as to] which of you is best in deed.” Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla created this world as a place of tests. “People will be tested. And We will see who will show patience and pass this test,” says Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla. People think that they can change and improve this world. Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla created this world in such way to make it clear who is good and who is bad among people. To distinguish them, in order for the good ones to go to a good place and the bad ones to go to a bad place. It is the law and order of Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla. You cannot change it. You should make effort to do good things. When hardship comes, you should be patient and you will be rewarded.

Our Holy Prophet ﷺ says that everything is good for believers. Easy things are good for them. And difficult things are good because they get rewarded for them. They don’t go in vain. Everything is a loss for unbelievers. They can have the whole world, there is no benefit in it. They can have all sufferings, there is no reward, no thawāb for these people. They are the people of shaytān, the friends of shaytān. This world is actually paradise for them. No matter how bad their condition is, it is still better than in ākhirah because they will go to hell in ākhirah. The suffering in hell is too big. And even the worst suffering in this world is like paradise for them.

That is why believers are in gain. Hardships are for their benefit. When Allah sends hardship, they get big rewards for being patient. When good things happen, believers make shukr and get rewarded for them as well. They have to always remember this to realize how lucky they are. They should not go against Allah. They should not complain to Allah and complain about Allah. Everything comes from Allah. Therefore, believers must be patient with tests. When they are patient, tests will be over. If they are not patient, they will also fail. 

May Allah protect us. May Allah not give us a test we cannot pass. May Allah protect us all inshāAllah.
