71. Sabr

A four letter word which has such huge meaning and deeper level. 

To understand the intellect of it, one must know that the English word, Patience and Sabr differs in contradiction to what and how it is done. 

Even the disbelievers will ask you to have patience. 

But this word Sabr is something so beautiful because it is phrased by Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala. 

Two beautiful sentences where Sabr is used is :
• Sabran Ya nafsi.
• Fasabrun jameel. 

First one is making your soul(nafs) to bear Sabr, like it goes, O my dear Soul Be Patient(sabr).

Second one is even more beautiful, because even if your soul strikes to not be patient or to have sabr, when you remember the second sentence. 

Which beautifully personifies that, Indeed with patience beautiful rewards awaits. 

The inner meaning of it is that bear patience for the sake of Allah 
Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala and see how beautiful it would be to bear patience or to have sabr for the sake of him.

Each one of us have different level of sabr, each one of us go through different levels of tests and trials on the level of Sabr we have in them. 

The more Sabr you have the more taste of hardships you will feel. Surely my dear when you're going through it, it would be very hard at the start. 

But wallahi, when it transpires and you finally succeed in the trial the essence of joy you feel in you would be irreplaceable. 

First ask your soul to be patient, Secondly bear patience for the sake of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala see how beautiful rewards we get.

So let's make a small change in our life and try to have a little bit of more patience than we already have. 

Remember to taste the love of Allah you need to go through trials and hardships and to go through that you need Sabr. 

So as Allah promised indeed with hardship their is ease. 

So wallahi, my Lord would never ever breaks his promises. 

So hold on, you are not alone, Allah is with you. 

He shall get you through this. Sabran ya nafsi, Sabran.
