The Prophet’s Hadiths on patience
"What I have forbidden to you, avoid; what I have ordered you,do as much of it as you can. It was only their excessive questioning and their disagreeing with their prophets that destroyed those who were before you."Bukhari and Muslim
Imam Ibn Al-Qayyim said, “There are three types of patience: Firstly, practicing patience to fulfill the obligations and to do righteous. Secondly, abstaining from evil and prohibited acts. And thirdly, practicing patience during times of hardship without complaints.”
O Allah, make us from those who have patience upon hardships and those who are thankful upon Your blessings.
