When you are hurt by the people who share blood relations with you, recall Yusuf [alayhi salaam] who was also betrayed by his brothers.
When you find your parents opposing you (in deen) recall Ibraheem [alayhi salaam] who was made to jump into a blazing fire by his father.
When you are mocked and abused by your own relatives just because you adopted deen over duniya, recall Rasul Allah [sallalhu alaihi wa sallam] who faced the same.
When you are stuck into some problem and find no way out recall Yunus [alayhi salaam] who was stuck inside the belly of a whale.
When you fall ill and your whole body cries with pain, recall Ayoob [alayhi salaam] who was more ill than you.
When you see some physical fault in yourself, recall Moosa [alayhi salam] who could not properly speak.
When someone slanders you, recall Ay'esha [radiallahu anha] who was also slandered throughout the city.
When you feel lonely recall how Adam [alayhi salaam] felt when he was created alone at first.
When you can't see any logic in what's going on and your heart asks why this is happening, recall Nooh [alayhi salaam] who built the biggest ship without questioning.
Subhan Allah! Allah put all those great personalities in trial so that the generations to follow may learn a lesson in patience and perseverance. May Allah swt include us among His patient and grateful servants. Ameen! - Unknown source ♥
They're indeed meant to be the best example for mankind and their tribulations the most extreme for exactly that reason.. because the the truth is when we find ourselves shunned, or diseased or rejected or facing a certain death we concede our surrender in our mind they become the exception not the norm and I think that is where faith and supplication play a role.. I personally tried to reason many things in my mind that I feel both irresolute and uncertain about and uncertainty itself when it takes years almost echos that it is madness to keep trying for the same thing over and over for hopes of different results... perhaps at the end of the day that is what distinguishes the faithful from the kaffir..
A most excellent post Jazaki Allah khyran for sharing..

Not only did he built a ship, he built it knowing that a body of water was not at sight.
