الصَّبْرُ وَ الرِّضَا عَنِ اللَّهِ رَأْسُ طَاعَةِ اللَّهِ وَ مَنْ صَبَرَ وَ رَضِيَ عَنِ اللَّهِ فِيمَا قَضَى عَلَيْهِ فِيمَا أَحَبَّ أَوْ كَرِهَ لَمْ يَقْضِ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَهُ فِيمَا أَحَبَّ أَوْ كَرِهَ إِلَّا مَا هُوَ خَيْرٌ لَهُ .
Translation
From him, from Yahya Bin Ibrahim Bin Abu Al Balaad, from Aasim Bin Humeyd, from Abu Hamza Al Sumaly, (It has been narrated) from Ali<sup>asws</sup> Bin Al-Husayn<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘The patience and the satisfaction from Allah<sup>azwj</sup> is the chief of the obedience to Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, and the one who is patient and satisfied from Allah<sup>azwj</sup> regarding whatever has been Judged upon him, with regards to whatever he loves or abhors, Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic would not Judge for him regarding whatever he loves or abhors, except what is better for him’.
