My-home-is-jannah
Patience, or patient perseverance, is obligatory, according to the consensus of the
scholars, and it is half of faith (îmân), the other half of which is gratitude (shukr).
Patience is mentioned in the Qur'ân around ninety times. The relation of patience to îmân
is like the relation of the head to the body, and the one who has no patience has no îmân.
This book has been written to highlight the urgent need for patience, and to explain that
our happiness in this life and our salvation in the hereafter depends on patience.
