To Faith, Sabr (patience) is just like the head to the body. There are
three types of Sabr.
First, there is the Sabr while performing Allah’s Commands,
so that one does not ignore (or get bored with) them.
There is a sabr with shunning
the prohibitions, so that one does not violate them.
There is also a sabr with
the appointed destiny and decisions of Allah, so that one is not enraged
because of them.
When one acquires all three types of Sabr, his sabr will be
complete and the delight of this and the Next life will be whole, along with
gaining and winning in both lives. No person shall achieve these great prizes
except by passing over the Sirat (the bridge over Hell).
Umar radhiAllahu anhu
said, “We achieve the best living by Sabr.”
