Worldly Difficulties: Reality, Causes, and Benefits

A book in English reminds us that worldly difficulties are a trial for believers to upgrade their levels in Paradise or expiate their sins. It also teaches how appropriate behaviors and correct attitudes can change adversities to a worthwhile opportunity to achieve Allah’s pleasure through patience and gratitude whereas impatience and ingratitude can worsen one’s troubles. It also explains the futility of invoking Prophets or the dead to remove hardships and encourages asking Allah alone to overcome one’s crises.
