Hazrat Abu Hurairah
(May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "A strong believer is better and dearer to Allah than a
weak one, and both are good. Adhere to that which is beneficial for you. Keep
asking Allah for help and do not refrain from it. If you are afflicted in any
way, do not say: `If I had taken this or that step, it would have resulted into
such and such,' but say only: `Allah so determined and did as He willed.' The
word `if' opens the gates of satanic thoughts".
[Muslim Chapter 08,
Book 33, Hadith #
6441].
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah An- Nahl Ayat 80. "And Allah has made
for you in your homes an abode",
1. In this Hadith, goodness is acknowledged in weak as well
as strong because the real Faith is a common feature of both. The one who is
stronger is, however, better with Allah for the reason that he is more active
and energetic in the matter of noble deeds and performance of ritual prayers,
obligatory as well as voluntary.
2. This Hadith ordains that in case of trouble, one should
exercise patience and show submission and obedience rather than saying `ifs' and
`buts' about it, because it provides Satan with a chance to mislead the
sufferer.
