The believer, man or woman, will continue to be tested with regard to his own self, children, and property until they meet Allah, the Almighty, without any sins in their record

The believer, man or woman, will continue to be tested with regard to his own self, children, and property until they meet Allah, the Almighty, without any sins in their record

Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The believer, man or woman, will continue to be tested with regard to his own self, children, and property until they meet Allah, the Almighty, without any sins in their record."

[Hasan Sahih /Sound-Authentic.] [At-Tirmidhi]

Explanation

The human being in this life is liable to experience pleasant and unpleasant trials. So, whenever a person is afflicted with a trial in himself, his children, or his property, yet persevered throughout the trial, it will be a cause for the expiation of his sins and misdeeds. However, if he expresses displeasure in the face of trials, Allah will be displeased with him.
