However, the results obtained afterward are sweeter than honey

And be patient if you are visited by a calamity

Syarah / Explanation and Conclusion:

********************************************

Shabir is a kind of medicinal plant commonly used by Arabs to treat people who are stung by insects, injured, and various other diseases.

This plant tastes bitter, but because it is efficacious, this plant is often used in the Arabian peninsula. Some references say that this Shabir is Aloe Vera or in Indonesia known as Aloe Vera.

Well, in the world of health only, to get healing when we have to be patient to swallow a medicine that tastes bitter, likewise in our lives, to achieve a success we must be patient to face the bitterness of struggle and sacrifice.

Patience is a big capital that helps a person a lot in navigating this life. Without patience, things will fall apart. Therefore, there are many verses or hadiths that show that people who are patient are the people who are liked. In the Quran, Allah SWT says:

وَالصَّابِرِينَ فِي الْبَأْسَاءِ وَالضَّرَّاءِ وَحِينَ الْبَأْسِ ۗ أُولَٰئِكَ الَّذِينَ صَدَقُوا ۖ وَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الْمُتَّقُونَ

"And those who are patient in adversity, suffering and in war, they are the truthful (in faith), and they are the pious." [Al-Baqarah: 177]
