Allaah ordered with patience. Patience is considered strength. Patience is steadfastness. Patience is from the obedience of Allaah.
Benefit:
“And our point of benefit may Allaah grant you all success that being firm is required, likewise patience, Allaah commanded with it in good times and bad times, Allaah said:
(وَلَمَن صَبَرَ وَغَفَرَ إِنَّ ذَٰلِكَ لَمِنْ عَزْمِ ٱلْأُمُورِ )
“And whoever is patient and forgives – indeed, that is of the matters [worthy] of resolve.” [Ash-Shura :43]
So Allaah ordered with patience. Patience is considered strength. Patience is steadfastness. Patience is from the obedience of Allaah.
And our point of benefit also, is that having trust in Allaah, it’s not allowed for you to become shaky in it, He is our Lord! By Allaah He is more merciful to us than ourselves, and more knowledgeable about what benefits us than ourselves. He is our Lord! By Allaah He has more vigilant concern than us over His religion. And Allaah knows we love His religion, we love Him, and we love His Book and the Sunnah of His Prophet ﷺ and His religion of truth and His Prophets and Messengers and we love all of the khair by Allaah. And this is not obscure to Him ever. Allaah knows – and we say this truthfully, and if a person say Allaah knows while he is lying then this is a major sin – Allaah knows that we love our Lord and we love His religion of truth and we love His Book and the Sunnah of His Prophet, and we love Islaam, and we love the knowledge and guidance and we hate all types of falsehood. According to what Allaah ﷻ has given us and made easy for us according to our weakness in it. And His promise upon the tongue of His Prophet and in the Book also.
(إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يُخْلِفُ ٱلْمِيعَاد)
“Indeed, Allah does not fail in [His] promise.” [Ar-Ra’d: 31]
إنما الأعمال بالنيات وإن لكل امرئ ما نوى
“Verily actions are by their intentions and for every person is what they intended.”
