حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ الْمَعْنِيُّ , وَيَحْيَى بْنُ دُرُسْتَ , قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ , عَنْ عَاصِمٍ , عَنْ مُصْعَبِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ , عَنْ أَبِيهِ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ , قَالَ : قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ , أَيُّ النَّاسِ أَشَدُّ بَلَاءً ؟ قَالَ : " الْأَنْبِيَاءُ , ثُمَّ الْأَمْثَلُ فَالْأَمْثَلُ , يُبْتَلَى الْعَبْدُ عَلَى حَسَبِ دِينِهِ , فَإِنْ كَانَ فِي دِينِهِ صُلْبًا اشْتَدَّ بَلَاؤُهُ , وَإِنْ كَانَ فِي دِينِهِ رِقَّةٌ ابْتُلِيَ عَلَى حَسَبِ دِينِهِ , فَمَا يَبْرَحُ الْبَلَاءُ بِالْعَبْدِ حَتَّى يَتْرُكَهُ يَمْشِي عَلَى الْأَرْضِ وَمَا عَلَيْهِ مِنْ خَطِيئَةٍ " .
´It was narrated from Mus’ab bin Sa’d that his father, Sa’d bin Abu Waqqas, said:` “I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, which people are most severely tested?’ He said: ‘The Prophets, then the next best and the next best. A person is tested according to his religious commitment. If he is steadfast in his religious commitment, he will be tested more severely, and if he is frail in his religious commitment, his test will be according to his commitment. Trials will continue to afflict a person until they leave him walking on the earth with no sin on him.’”

It is understood from this that the stronger a servant is in his faith, the greater his trials and tests will be. However, within these trials and tests, there is also an aspect of goodness for him: through them, his sins continue to be forgiven, and the servant will meet Allah in such a state that there will be no sin upon him.
