Asking Allah for patience with His decree and the types of patience

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, this person asks and says: Is it permissible for us to ask Allah for patience with His decree regarding His sins?

Answer:
Yes, ask Allah for patience and for the reward of patience. Patience is of three types: patience away from the prohibitions of Allah, patience in obeying Allah, and patience in the face of the painful decrees of Allah. So the Muslim practices these types of patience when he needs them, and he has the great reward
but give good tidings to the patient, (156) Who, when disaster strikes them, say, "Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return."وَبَشِّرِ الصَّابِرِينَ الَّذِينَ إِذَا أَصَابَتْهُم مُّصِيبَةٌ قَالُوا إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ
[Al-Baqarah 2:155-156]
. And He, the Exalted, said:
No disaster strikes except by permission of Allah. And whoever believes in Allah - He will guide his heartمَا أَصَابَ مِن مُّصِيبَةٍ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ وَمَن يُؤْمِن بِاللَّهِ يَهْدِ قَلْبَهُ
[At-Taghabun 64:11]
. Some of the Salaf said: He is the man who is struck by a calamity, and he knows that it is from Allah, so he is pleased and submits. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you and bless you
