Everything is good for the believer

Thursday, December 27, 1962

عَجَبًا لِأَمْرِ الْمُؤْمِنِ، إِنَّ أَمْرَهُ كُلَّهُ خَيْرٌ، وَلَيْسَ ذَاكَ لِأَحَدٍ إِلَّا لِلْمُؤْمِنِ: إِنْ أَصَابَتْهُ سَرَّاءُ شَكَرَ فَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُ، وَإِنْ أَصَابَتْهُ ضَرَّاءُ صَبَرَ فَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُ
Transliteration

'Ajaban li-amri-l-mu'min, inna amrahu kullahu khayr, wa laysa dhaka li-ahadin illa li-l-mu'min: in asabat-hu sarra'u shakara fa-kana khayran lah, wa in asabat-hu darra'u sabara fa-kana khayran lah.

Translation

How wonderful is the affair of the believer, everything about him is good, and that is for no one except the believer. If good comes, he is grateful, and that is good for him. If harm comes, he is patient, and that is good for him.
