الَّذِي خَلَقَ الْمَوْتَ وَالْحَيَاةَ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ أَيُّكُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلًا وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْغَفُورُ
Who created death and life that He may try you-- which of you is best in deeds; and He is the Mighty, the Forgiving,
In all cases, trials can be good for the true believer.
If he is tested with prosperity, he should remain grateful and he will receive a reward which is much greater than his test.
If he is tested with hardship, he should remain patient and he will receive a reward which is much greater than his hardship.
Suhaib reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:
"Wondrous is the affair of the believer for there is good for him in every matter and this is not the case with anyone except the believer. If he is happy, then he thanks Allah and thus there is good for him. If he is harmed, then he shows patience and thus there is good for him." Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 2999
Trials can be a sign that Allah Subhanahu wa taala intends good for us, because through trials our sins are expiated and we have the opportunity to perform more good deeds.
Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:
"If Allah intends good for someone, then he afflicts him with trials." Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 5321
So when hardships befall upon you O believer, Be grateful and don't lose hope.
Your Rabb is making you strong, getting you closer to Him and is just increasing your Faith.
