Imam Baqir (a.s) quoted on the authority of the Prophet (a.s)
“I am amazed by a believer. God the Almighty does not destine anything for him unless there is some benefit in it for him. He should be patient if he is suffering from a calamity, and he should be grateful if he is granted something.”
عن أبي جعفر (عليه السلام) قال
قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله): عجبا للمؤمن! إن الله عز وجل لا يقضي له قضاء إلا كان له خيرا، إن ابتلي صبر، وإن أعطي شكر.
