Who are we to ask Allah about what He does. Rather Allah will question you about what you do.
لَا يُسْـَٔلُ عَمَّا يَفْعَلُ وَهُمْ يُسْـَٔلُونَ ﴿٢٣﴾
He is not questioned about what He does, but they will be questioned.
[Quran, Al Anbiya' 21:23]
Calamities should bring about humility in us. It is to make us humble in front of Allah, to remind us of our mortality, to make us remove arrogance, to make us turn to Allah.
The Prophet (ﷺ) when a calamity happened he would automatically stand up in prayer and increase du'a.
The wisdom of calamities is that it awakens you and bring you closer to Allah.
وَلَنَبْلُوَنَّكُم بِشَىْءٍ مِّنَ ٱلْخَوْفِ وَٱلْجُوعِ وَنَقْصٍ مِّنَ ٱلْأَمْوَٰلِ وَٱلْأَنفُسِ وَٱلثَّمَرَٰتِ ۗ وَبَشِّرِ ٱلصَّـٰبِرِينَ ﴿١٥٥
And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good tidings to the patient, (155)
[Quran, Al-Baqarah 2:155]
May Allah make us of those who are humble and patient, and bring us closer to Him. Ameen.
