Imam Sadiq (a.s) said: “The relationship between patience and faith is similar to that of head and body. If there is no head, there cannot be any body. So if there is no patience, there cannot be any faith.”
عنه (عليه السلام) قال
الصبر من الإيمان بمنزلة الرأس من الجسد، فإذا ذهب الرأس ذهب الجسد، كذلك إذا ذهب الصبر ذهب الإيمان.
