What Truly Is Patience (Sabr)?
Suffering from a decade-long stress disorder, whenever I read a verse about being patient in hardship, it caused even more stress because I just didn’t want to suffer like this anymore. It turned out, the meaning I was taking about patience was that I was supposed to just accept the pain and bear it in a passive way until God’s help came.
But now I have learned that patience is not about passively bearing the pain but it is about working on resolving it while keeping hope in God and staying optimistic. Also, it is about not getting into anything sinful in order to get yourself out of suffering, such as stealing when you are poor. Is this what truly patience is? Just want to confirm because I learned this new approach from chatGPT.
