Read Sultanق’s Sohbah here:

Bismi Llahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim:

إِنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَ الصَّابِرِينَ

(Qur’ān 02:153). ‘Inna Allāha Ma’a s-Sabireen’, ‘Indeed, Allah is with the patient.’ Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is with those who are patient. ‘إِنَّمَا يُوَفَّى الصَّابِرُونَ أَجْرَهُم بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ’, ‘Innamā Yuwaffá s-Sābirūna ‘Ajrahum Bighayri Ĥisāb’, ‘Indeed, the patient will be given their reward without account.’ (Qur’ān 39:10). The rewards of the patient ones are given without account. Such a great reward is given that only Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla knows this reward. Even angels cannot write it down.

Certainly, this condition now is extremely severe. You get upset when you look at it. This is a test from Allah ﷻ. There is nothing these people can do but be patient with this test. May Allah ﷻ help them. We ask that Allah ﷻ gives patience, because without patience there is nothing one can do. When there is patience, Allah ﷻ is with those who are patient. He ﷻ will help them, and His ﷻ Help is enormous. There is no one who can help but Allahﷻ.

Of course, people are helping from the outside. May Allah ﷻ be pleased with them. They are sending food and water. But the actual spiritual support is from Allah ﷻ. Because a normal person cannot carry this suffering. Unless Allah ﷻ helps him, a person cannot carry it. And Allah ﷻ will give their rewards for being patient. Allah ﷻ gives both the power of patience and the reward.

They say you cannot question the wisdom of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. What had to happen has happened. You can say “It was built weakly or strongly” as much as you want. What’s important is that whenever death has to come to someone, he will be there. It is said in Qur’an ‘Azimu sh-Shan that wherever and whenever the death of someone is, Allah ﷻ knows everything about it. ‘إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَعْلَمُ’, ‘Inna Allaha Ya’lamu’, ‘Indeed, Allah knows.’ (Qur’ān 16:74). These are things known to Allah ﷻ. Therefore, being patient with what has happened is the best thing for people.

Certainly, they are patient. May Allah ﷻ help them. May Allah ﷻ give them all their rewards insha’Allah. It is a very big test. It is a very big disaster and a test. May Allah ﷻ make them from those who pass this test and may He ﷻ reward them. The greater the suffering is, the greater Thawab is. May Allah ﷻ help them and may Allah ﷻ protect them.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
