Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reciter: Muhammad ibn Bashshar al-Abdi narrated to us, Muhammad—meaning Ibn Ja'far—narrated to us, Shu'bah narrated to us from Thabit, who said: I heard Anas ibn Malik say: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
(Real) Patience is at the first stroke of the calamity. الصَّبْرُ عِنْدَ الصَّدْمَةِ الْأُولَى
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 988Sahih (Darussalam)
.

The Shaykh : By "shock" is meant the calamity; that is, when a person is struck by a calamity, it is as if he has been hit. The praiseworthy patience is that which occurs at the first shock: the moment a person first hears of the calamity. As for what comes after that, after reflection and contemplation, it is of no benefit, especially if panic occurs at the very beginning of the calamity. Yes.
