Imam Sadiq (a.s) said: “God the Almighty granted a group of people some blessings, but they did not give thanks, and it became a burden for them. God brought a calamity upon some people and they persevered. Then they got blessings from their perseverance.”
قال الصادق (عليه السلام): إن الله عز وجل أنعم على قوم بالمواهب فلم يشكروا فصارت عليهم وبالا، وابتلى قوما بالمصائب فصبروا فصارت عليهم نعمة.
