Hazrat Khaythamah says: Hazrat Sulaiman bin Dawood (peace be upon him) said: We have experienced every kind of life, both one of comfort and ease, and one of hardships and afflictions, and we have found that (whatever state we are in) it is possible to get by even in a more difficult state than this.
