People of patience
Hadhrat Imam Sadiq (a.s.) Said:
When it is the Day of Judgement, a group of people stand and then come to the door
of Heaven to knock on it. They will be asked who they are and they will say: ` We are the
people of patience.' Then, they will be inquired
upon what they were patient about, and they will respond: `We were patient with the
obedience of Allah and were patient with avoiding
the sins against Him.'
So Allah, Almighty and Glorious, will say they are right and He will
let them enter Heaven. This is the word of Allah, Almighty and Glorious, Who says: `Those
who patiently preserve will truly receive a reward without measure!' (Sura 39, ayet 10)
