Patience Is Your Friend

Patience is your friend


Know, that the beginning of the path is patience, and its end is thankfulness. Its beginning is difficulty, and its end is bliss. Its beginning is toil and weariness, and its end is opening, unveiling and arrival at the ultimate goal which is gnosis of God, arrival to Him, being comforted by Him, and standing in His noble presence. The one who makes gracious patience the foundation of all his affairs turns to every goodness, reaches everything that he hopes for, and wins all that he seeks.

How can you lay claim to faith, when you have no patience at all. Surely you must have heard the saying of the prophet Muhammad peace and blessings be upon him “Patience is to faith, as the head is to the body."

 Sheikh Abdul Qadir al Jilani(ra)
