Hadith.5900 - Ahmad ibn Ishaq ibn Saʿd narrated from Abdullah ibn Maymun, from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq from his father, Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir
, who said:
Al-Fadl ibn Al-Abbas said:
A mule was gifted to the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) by Kisra (the Persian emperor) or Qayṣar (the Roman emperor).
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) rode it with a saddle made of hair and had me ride behind him.
Then, the Prophet ﷺ said to me:
"O' boy, safeguard Allah (swt), and He (swt) will safeguard you.
Safeguard Allah (swt), and you will find Him (swt) before you.
Recognize Allah (swt) in times of ease, and He (swt) will recognize you in times of hardship.
When you ask, ask Allah (swt), and when you seek help, seek help from Allah (swt), the Mighty and Majestic.
Indeed, the pen has already written what is to occur. So, if all people strive to benefit you with something that Allah (swt) has not decreed for you, they will never be able to do so.
And if they strive to harm you with something that Allah (swt) has not decreed against you, they will never be able to harm you.
If you are able to act with patience along with certainty, then do so. If you are unable, then be patient, for in patience over what you dislike is much good.
Know that victory comes with patience, relief comes with distress, and with hardship comes ease.
Indeed, with hardship comes ease."
