The questioner : Regarding the calamities that befall a person in his life in this world, is he rewarded for them?
The Shaykh : The calamities that befall a person in this world expiate his sins. A person is never free from sins, evil deeds, or mistakes. So these calamities occur to expiate them. Then, if he seeks the reward from Allah, he will have a reward for that: a reward for his patience and his seeking of reward. Allah will raise his rank thereby and reward him for it. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah preserve you. This questioner says in his question.
