Patience is only at the first shock: Is this general for all calamities?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good, Your Eminence. A question.

The Shaykh : Please proceed.

The questioner : The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him):
Indeed, patience is at the first shock إن الصبر عن الصدمة الأولى
.

The Shaykh : Ah?

The questioner :
Indeed, patience is at the first shock إن الصبر عن الصدمة الأولى
Is it general for all?

The Shaykh : For all calamities.

The questioner : For all calamities.

The Shaykh : For all calamities. Patience is truly at the first shock, because that is when the person is affected. If he does not have patience in that, there is no benefit. For example, if when he was struck by a calamity he immediately tore his clothes, ripped his shirt, and slapped his cheeks, and then later thought and said, "I was wrong," he has missed the reward of the patient. Because when is patience? At the first shock. Because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him):
He passed by a woman weeping at a grave and spoke to her, and she said to him: Leave me alone, for you have not been afflicted with what I have been afflicted with مر بامرأة تبكي عند قبر فكلمها فقالت له : إليك عني فإنك لم يصبك ما أصابني
or words to that effect. And when he left, they said to her: This is the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family). So she came to apologize, and he said to her:
Patience should come with the first shock. إنما الصبر عند الصدمة الأولى
Sunan Ibn Majah 1596Hasan (Darussalam)
Yes, Yasar, good.
