Shaykh Dr. Yasir Qadhi divulges details on the reason behind calamities and tragedies in our lives and what is Allah showing us through them?
Wisdom of calamities and musibah in our lives:
The Rabb is All Powerful and we are his abd.
To understand that our knowledge is limited.
No one has the right to challenge Allah on the happening of a calamity. Whenever we question Allah’s Hikmah, we do not portray belief.
When we are faced by a calamity,we can distinguish real faith from virtual faith of the creation.
When evils come, they bring out the good in people.
Allah wants us to taste the consequence of some of our misdeeds in this world.
It is a trial that brings us closer to Allah SWT.
Allah has praised patience in the Qur'an like nothing else. Patience can only come in the face of a calamity.
Calamities and afflictions remind us this world is not our ultimate destination.
