Sahih al-Bukhari 6291 (Book 79, Hadith 63) #6042
The Power of Patience

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the importance of patience and how it was exemplified by Prophet Moses.

Narrated 'Abdullah: One day the Prophet divided and distributed something amongst the people whereupon an Ansari man said, "In this division Allah's Countenance has not been sought". I said, "By Allah! I will go (and inform) the Prophet". So I went to him while he was with a group of people, and I secretly informed him of that, whereupon he became so angry that his face became red, and he then said, "May Allah bestow His Mercy on Moses (for) he was hurt more than that, yet he remained patient".
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ قَسَمَ النَّبِيُّ يَوْمًا قِسْمَةً فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ إِنَّ هَذِهِ لَقِسْمَةٌ مَا أُرِيدَ بِهَا وَجْهُ اللَّهِ‏.‏ قُلْتُ أَمَا وَاللَّهِ لآتِيَنَّ النَّبِيَّ فَأَتَيْتُهُ وَهْوَ فِي مَلأٍ، فَسَارَرْتُهُ فَغَضِبَ حَتَّى احْمَرَّ وَجْهُهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى مُوسَى، أُوذِيَ بِأَكْثَرَ مِنْ هَذَا فَصَبَرَ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith tells us about the importance of patience in our lives. It was narrated by Abdullah, who said that one day, the Prophet distributed something amongst people and an Ansari man said that Allah's countenance was not sought in this division. Abdullah then went to inform the Prophet about this, and when he did so, he became very angry. He then said that even though Moses faced a much more difficult situation than this one, he still remained patient. This hadith teaches us to remain patient no matter what situation we are in and to always seek Allah's countenance in all our actions. We should remember how even though Moses faced a difficult situation, he still remained patient which is why we should strive to do the same as well.
