Praise Allah

If I am afflicted with a calamity, I praise Allah for it 4 times:

FeathersI praise Him because it wasn't worse than it was,

I praise Him when He gives me the patience to bear it,

I praise Him for enabling me to say al-istirja' ('To Allah we belong and to him we will return) in hope of a great reward,

I praise Him for not making it a calamity in my religion. (Shurayh)

"If something is meant to go elsewhere, it will never come your way, but if it is yours by destiny, from you it cannot flee."
