A Little Patience Goes a Long Way!
.

,​

Ibn Rajab - rahimahullaah - said: (1)​

ولا بد للمؤمن من صبر قليل حتى يصل به إلى راحة طويلة​

and itâ incumbent upon the believer to have a little patience in order to reach by way of it to a lengthy rest.​

فإن جزع ولم يصبر فهو كما قال ابن المبارك​

من صبر فما أقل ما يصبر ومن جزع فما أقل ما يتمتع​

If he gets impatient then he is,
as has been said by Ibn al-Mubaarak:​

Whoever exercises patience,
then how little is the patience he will have to exercise.
And whoever is impatient,
then how little is the enjoyment he will have.​

:وكان الإمام الشافعي رحمه اللَه ينشد​

يا نَـفـسُ مــا هِـــيَ إلاّ صَـــبـــرُ أَيّامِ​

كَــأَنَّ مُـدَّتَــهـــا أَضــغــاثُ أَحــلامِ​

يا نَـفْـسُ جـــوزي عَـنِ الـدُنــيا مُـبـادِرَةً​

وَخَــلِّ عَـنـهـا فَـإِنَّ الـعَـيشَ قُــدامـــي​

al-Imaam ash-Shaafiâee - rahimahullaah -
used to recite (the following verses of poetry):​

O my soul! It is not, except a few days of patience;
As if the extent were but a few dreams.
O my soul! Pass quickly on through this world;
And leave it, for indeed life lies ahead of it. ​

O my soul! It is not, except a few days of patience;
As if the extent were but a few dreams.
O my soul! Pass quickly on through this world;
And leave it, for indeed life lies ahead of it.
