Hadith 1136
Sayyiduna Abu Darda’ (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned trials, and also mentioned the reward that Allah has made complete for those who are patient, and he also mentioned well-being, saying: “Whoever is grateful for it is also deserving of a great reward.” I said: O Messenger of Allah! If I am granted well-being and I am grateful, that is dearer to me than being put to trial and being patient. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “The Messengers of Allah also prefer well-being along with you.”
