The word sahibul tale, until the age of 60 years, the Prophet Job lived overwhelmed by the blessings of God in a happy household with a faithful wife and children who love him. Suddenly he was plagued by disaster; the house was washed away by the flood, the children died at a young age, and he was sick.
After a few months of suffering, his wife said to him, "You are a prophet and your prayer is answered by God, is this your suffering, yet have you begged the Divine to be released from the disaster?"
With a quiet smile, the prophet Ayub replied, "I am ashamed to lift my face to be released from the disaster that I recently held, because I never forget for decades I received His blessings."
We all must feel the joy and sorrow. Though both contain values that lead to goodness. However, no doubt. It is very difficult for us to be grateful when we get pleasure and be patient when we get a trial. Though both are a test for humans.
Ibn al-Jawzi said, "When tiredness passes, happiness will be absorbed, otherwise, when happiness is passed, regret will come."
Anas reported that the Messenger of Allah (saws) said: "A hellish man who, when in the most abundant world of pleasure, was visited by an angel.After being immersed once into the fire of hell, he was asked," O son of Adam, have you seen goodness? Have you ever felt happiness? He replied, "By Allah, no, O my Lord."
"Then, a resident of heaven, who, when in the world of his life the most miserable, was also visited by an angel.After being inserted once into heaven, he was then asked, 'O son of Adam, have you ever seen misery, have you experienced suffering? , 'By Allah, never, I have never experienced misery, nor seen suffering.'
Most of us assume that disaster is a problem and pleasure is not a problem. Though essentially, both have challenges to be answered. When we get a favor, we must be able to answer the challenge. Berskkurkah or kufr?
The story of the Prophet Job above shows how much he was patient with a very tough test. And before, he lived for 60 years in pleasure. This shows that happiness and misery are two things that always go hand in hand. Sometimes we are happy, sometimes we get miserable.
The motivation we can derive from the story of the Prophet Job is that when he was calamitous, he patiently remembered that he had been happy. So he embarrassed to raise his face to be released from the disaster that he had not been long before, because he dozens of know feel the pleasure of God.
Why do we grieve too deep, when our calamity is not as big as the Prophet Job. Keep tapping on the sky door, praying constantly to Him. In order to be miserable, the pain you experience is immediately replaced with happiness. Do not forget to pray also so that when you're happy do not forget to give thanks.
