Konsep Sabar dan Syukur

1.Hidup manusia ini ibarat satu kitaran roda. Sekejap kita di atas, sekejap kita berada di bawah. Allah akan memberi dugaan kepada hambaNya, kemudian Allah juga akan memberi nikmat kepada sesiapa yang Allah kehendaki.
2. Apabila hambaNya menerima sesuatu musibah, perlu kembali kepada Allah, menganggap ianya cubaan dan dugaan dari Allah Yang Maha Adil untuk menguji hambaNya itu benar-benar sabar dengan apa yang telah mereka lalui itu.
3.Musibah seperti penyakit, kesempitan hidup atau berbagai-bagai lagi jangan dijadikan suatu alasan untuk hambaNya untuk mensyirikkan Allah. Bahkan, kita sebagai hambaNya yang beriman perlu bersabar, dan terus berdoa bermunajat memohon pertolongan dariNya sambil kita berikhtiar dan berusaha mengatasi musibah itu.
4.Nikmat yang Allah sediakan untuk hambaNya bukan untuk dinikmati sahaja. Islam menganjurkan kepada penganutnya supaya bersyukur atas kejayaan, kenikmatan yang diperolehi. Malah nimat juga adalah salah satu cara dugaan yang allah berikan kepada hambaNya untuk melihat sejauh mana kesyukuran hambaNya kepada Allah Yang Maha Pemurah.
5.Jika kita bersyukur,maka Allah akan tambahkan nikmat. Dan jika kita kufur terhadap Allah maka azab seksa yang dahsyat menanti untuk mereka
6.Oleh itu, marilah kita sama-sama amalkan konsep sabar dan syukur dalam kehidupan harian kita. Moga kita sentiasa dibawah berkat dan rahmat Allah.
