Steadfastness in times of calamity, in light of the Prophetic guidance, is required of the Muslim, along with contentment with the divine decree of Allah. So how is steadfastness achieved in times of calamity?

The way to achieve it is that one does not become distressed or complain, and that he is content with the divine decree and destiny of Allah, and that he knows that what has befallen him was not going to miss him, and what has missed him was not going to befall him; and this is the meaning of faith in the divine decree, which is one of the six pillars of faith: faith in the divine decree, its good and its evil.
