Jami at-Tirmidhi 3058 (Book 47, Hadith 110) #28707
The Reward of Patience

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the importance of doing good deeds and staying away from evil, even when it is difficult to do so.

Narrated Abu Umayah Ash-Sha'bani: "I went to Abu Tha'balah Al-Khushani and said to him: 'How do you deal with this Ayah?' He said: 'Which Ayah?' I said: 'Allah's saying: Take care of yourselves! If you follow the guidance no harm shall come to you (5:105)'. He said: 'Well, by Allah! I asked one well-informed about it, I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about it. So he said: "Rather, comply with (and order) the good, and stay away from (and prohibit) the evil, until you see avarice obeyed, desires followed, and the world preferred, and everyone is amazed with his view. Then you should be worried about yourself in particular, and worry of the common folk. Ahead of you are the days in which patience is like holding onto an ember, for the doer (of righteous deeds) during them is the like of the reward of fifty of those who do the like of what you do"'.Abdullah bin Al-Mubarak said: "It was added for me, by other than 'Utbah, that it was said: 'O Messenger of Allah! The reward of fifty men among us, or them?' He said: 'No! Rather the reward of fifty men among you'."

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith emphasizes the importance of doing good deeds and staying away from evil, even when it is difficult to do so. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that if people are following their desires and avarice, then one should be especially careful in their own actions. He also said that during these times, patience will be like holding onto an ember - a very difficult task - but those who persevere will receive a reward equivalent to fifty people who do similar deeds as them. This hadith teaches us that we should always strive to do what is right despite how hard it may seem at times because Allah rewards those who are patient in their faithfulness towards Him. It also encourages us to look out for each other by being mindful of our own actions as well as those around us.
