Allaah afflicts a servant with trials until he becomes honorable
Ibnul Qayyim رحمه الله said,
“Were it not that Allaah the Exalted cured His servants with
the medicine of tests and trials, they would transgress and commit evil. When Allaah
the Exalted intends goodness for a servant, He makes him drink the medicine of
tests and trials from providence according to his situation in order to cure
him from deadly diseases, until He purifies him and cleans him and he achieves
the most honorable status in the world, that of being a true servant of Allaah,
and he is given the GREATEST reward in the Hereafter, that of seeing Allaah and
being close to Him.”
