This life is but just a switching of states. The poet/scholar mentions;
ثمانية تجري على الناس كلهم و لابد للإنسان أن يلقى الثمانية
سرور وحزن واجتماع وفرقة و يسر وعسر ثم سقم وعافية
‘Eight states pass by all people, and man will inevitably meet each one…
[They are:]
1) Happiness
2) Sadness
3) In company
4) Alone
5) Ease
6) Difficulty
7) Illness
8) Good health’
It’s not about what specific situation we are in. It’s about our response to Allah’s Qadr.
