Obey Allah's commands even in times of difficulty & pain

Khabbab was a companion of the Prophet Muhammad who had suffered greatly and had seven cauterizes on his stomach. Despite this immense suffering, he still chose to obey Allah and His Messenger by not calling for death. This teaches us that even in times of great difficulty and pain, we should remain patient and obedient to Allah's commands. We should never forget that Allah is All Knowing and All Wise; He knows what is best for us even if we cannot understand it at the time. Furthermore, this Hadith also serves as a reminder that life is precious; no matter how difficult our situation may be, we must never wish or call for death as it is something only Allah can decide upon.
