Virtue of Being Patient Upon Calamities

Moderator: A woman says in this question: Esteemed Sheikh, is a person rewarded and elevated in ranks for being patient upon what saddens him and causes distress in his life? Sheikh: Yes, being patient upon calamities gets one closer to Allah ﷻ. Allah says(the meaning of which): {But give glad tidings to those who are patient. Who, when afflicted with calamity, say: "Truly! To Allah we belong and truly, to Him we shall return." They are those on whom are the Salawat from their Rabb, and (they are those who) receive His Mercy, and it is they who are the guided-ones.} [Al-Baqarah: 155-157] Allah ﷻ says (it's meaning): {And be patient. Surely, Allah is with those who are patient.} [Al-Anfaal:46] And Allah ﷻ says: {Only those who are patient shall receive their rewards in full, without reckoning.} [Az-Zumar:10] And the Prophet ﷺ said, "How astonishing is the case of a believer; there is goodness for him in everything. If a calamity strikes him, he endures it patiently and that is good for him; and If prosperity attends him, he expresses gratitude to Allah and that is good for him". If a woman or man is afflicted with sadness or distress due to debt or enmity of someone, enmity of his parents, or his neighbours, and he endures it patiently and doesn't do anything but goodness, for him is a great reward. And likewise if he is patient upon illnesses and grief like the death of a relative. There is great goodness and virtue in all of that. Yes.
