Allah Most High says,
يَٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ ٱسْتَعِينُوا۟ بِٱلصَّبْرِ وَٱلصَّلَوٰةِ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ مَعَ ٱلصَّٰبِرِينَ
O you who have believed, seek help through patience and prayer. Indeed, Allah is with the patient. [Quran, Al Baqarah 2:153]
The two great sources of strength and victory are prayer and patience.
Patience is to see that the test as being from Allah; that the test is an opportunity to seek Allah’s pleasure; to determine what course of action and response that is pleasing to Allah and to hold firm to the response without any objections whatsoever. If you do this during difficulties, then the Divine promise is that truly Allah is with the unwavering patient ones. Patience is strength. You may not see it in the midst of your trials but if you are steadfast, you will feel the closeness of Allah.
May we find victory in ourselves, our families and our communities. Aameen.
