Sahih al-Bukhari 6100 (Book 78, Hadith 127) #5856
The Power of Patience

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the importance of patience and how even Moses, a great prophet, was tested with more than what this man from the Ansar was tested with.

Narrated 'Abdullah: The Prophet divided and distributed something as he used to do for some of his distributions. A man from the Ansar said, "By Allah, in this division the pleasure of Allah has not been intended". I said, "I will definitely tell this to the Prophet ". So I went to him while he was sitting with his companions and told him of it secretly. That was hard upon the Prophet and the color of his face changed, and he became so angry that I wished I had not told him. The Prophet then said, "Moses was harmed with more than this, yet he remained patient".
حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ شَقِيقًا، يَقُولُ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ قَسَمَ النَّبِيُّ قِسْمَةً كَبَعْضِ مَا كَانَ يَقْسِمُ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ وَاللَّهِ إِنَّهَا لَقِسْمَةٌ مَا أُرِيدَ بِهَا وَجْهُ اللَّهِ‏.‏ قُلْتُ أَمَّا أَنَا لأَقُولَنَّ لِلنَّبِيِّ فَأَتَيْتُهُ وَهْوَ فِي أَصْحَابِهِ فَسَارَرْتُهُ فَشَقَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ وَتَغَيَّرَ وَجْهُهُ وَغَضِبَ، حَتَّى وَدِدْتُ أَنِّي لَمْ أَكُنْ أَخْبَرْتُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ قَدْ أُوذِيَ مُوسَى بِأَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَصَبَرَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks to the power of patience and how it can help us in difficult times. It tells us that even when we are faced with difficult situations, we should remain patient and not lose hope. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) used this example to illustrate his point; he said that even Moses, one of the greatest prophets ever sent by Allah, was tested with more than what this man from the Ansar was tested with yet he remained patient. This teaches us that no matter how hard our situation may seem, if we remain patient and trust in Allah's plan for us then He will make things easier for us in due time. We must remember that Allah tests those whom He loves so if we are being tested then it is because He loves us and wants to bring out our best qualities. Therefore, it is important for all of us to practice patience during times of difficulty as it will help lead to success both in this life and the hereafter.
