O you who believe, persevere and endure and remain stationed and fear Allah that you may be successful [Al ‘Imran 3:200].

“And We made from among them leaders guiding by Our command when they were patient and [when] they were certain of Our signs. “ [as-Sajdah 32:24].

“…and be patient. Indeed, Allah is with the patient.” [al-Anfal 8:46].
Abu Ali ad-Daqqaq said:
“ People who have patience are the true winners in this world and the next, because they have the companionship of Allah .”


7. Allah will reward those who have patience with a threefold reward: blessings, mercy and guidance:
ﻭﺑﺸﺮ ﺍﻟﺼﺎﺑﺮﻳﻦ
ﺍﻟﺬﻳﻦ ﺇﺫﺍ ﺃﺻﺎﺑﺘﻬﻢ ﻣﺼﻴﺒﺔ ﻗﺎﻟﻮﺍ ﺇﻧﺎ ﻟﻠﻪ ﻭﺇﻧﺎ ﺇﻟﻴﻪ ﺭﺍﺟﻌﻮﻥ
ﺃﻭﻟﺌﻚ ﻋﻠﻴﻬﻢ ﺻﻠﻮﺍﺕ ﻣﻦ ﺭﺑﻬﻢ ﻭﺭﺣﻤﺔ ﻭﺃﻭﻟﺌﻚ ﻫﻢ ﺍﻟﻤﻬﺘﺪﻭﻥ
“…but give glad tidings to those who patiently persevere – who say, when afflicted with calamity: ‘To Allah we belong, and to Him is our return’ – they are those on whom [descend] blessings from their Lord, and Mercy and they are the ones that receive guidance” [al-Baqarah 2:155-7].
When people came to offer their condolences to one of the salaf, for some calamity that had befallen him, he said:
“ Why should I not practice patience, when Allah has promised those who have patience three rewards, each of which is better than this world and everything in it
?“

“Yes, if you remain patient and conscious of Allah and the enemy come upon you [attacking] in rage, your Lord will reinforce you with five thousand angels having marks [of distinction] “ [Al ‘Imran 3:125].


10.Patience and taqwa are a great protection against the cunning of enemies:
ﻭﺇﻥ ﺗﺼﺒﺮﻭﺍ ﻭﺗﺘﻘﻮﺍ ﻻ ﻳﻀﺮﻛﻢ ﻛﻴﺪﻫﻢ ﺷﻴﺌﺎ ﺇﻥ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﺑﻤﺎ ﻳﻌﻤﻠﻮﻥ ﻣﺤﻴﻂ
“…And if you are patient and fear Allah , their plot will not harm you at all. Indeed, Allah is encompassing of what they do.…” [Al ‘Imran 3:120].
11.The angels will salute the people of patience in Jannah:
ﻭﺍﻟﻤﻼﺋﻜﺔ ﻳﺪﺧﻠﻮﻥ ﻋﻠﻴﻬﻢ ﻣﻦ ﻛﻞ ﺑﺎﺏ
ﺳﻼﻡ ﻋﻠﻴﻜﻢ ﺑﻤﺎ ﺻﺒﺮﺗﻢ ﻓﻨﻌﻢ ﻋﻘﺒﻰ ﺍﻟﺪﺍﺭ
“…And the angels will enter upon them from every gate, [saying],”Peace be upon you for what you patiently endured. And excellent is the final home.” [ar-Ra’d 13:23-24].


12.Allah made it permissible to treat our enemies no worse than they treat us, but He has made it clear that practising patience is better:
ﻭﺇﻥ ﻋﺎﻗﺒﺘﻢ ﻓﻌﺎﻗﺒﻮﺍ ﺑﻤﺜﻞ ﻣﺎ ﻋﻮﻗﺒﺘﻢ ﺑﻪ ﻭﻟﺌﻦ ﺻﺒﺮﺗﻢ ﻟﻬﻮ ﺧﻴﺮ ﻟﻠﺼﺎﺑﺮﻳﻦ
“And if you punish [an enemy, O believers], punish with an equivalent of that with which you were harmed. But if you are patient – it is better for those who are patient.” [an-Nahl 16:126].
