11:11 - Not so do those who show patience and constancy and work righteousness; for them is
forgiveness (of sins) and a great reward. 1508
1508 Their attitude is the right one: to take ill-fortune with fortitude and good fortune with humility, and in either case go on
persevering in good deeds to their fellow-creatures. (11.11)
11:115 - And be steadfast in patience; for verily Allah will not suffer the reward of the righteous to
perish.
12:83 - Jacob said: "Nay but ye have yourselves contrived a story (good enough) for you. So
patience is most fitting (for me). Maybe Allah will bring them (back) all to me (in the end): for
He is indeed full of knowledge and wisdom." 17561757
13:22 - Those who patiently persevere seeking the countenance their Lord; establish regular
prayers; spend out of (the gifts) We have bestowed for their sustenance secretly and openly;
and turn off Evil with good: for such there is the final attainment of the (Eternal) Home 1836
1836 Their journey in this life was at best a sojourn. The Heaven is their eternal Home, which is further prefigured in the two
following verses. (13.22)
13:24 - "Peace unto you for that ye persevered in patience! Now how excellent is the final Home!"
16:42 - (They are) those who persevere in patience and put their trust on their Lord.
16:126 - And if ye do catch them out catch them out no worse than they catch you out: but if ye
show patience that is indeed the best (course) for those who are patient. 2163
2163 In the context this passage refers to controversies and discussions, but the words are wide enough to cover all human
struggles, disputes, and fights. In strictest equity you are not entitled to give a worse blow than is given to you. Lest you
should think that such patience only gives an advantage to the adversary, you are told that the contrary is the case, the
advantage is with the patient, the self-possessed, those who do not lose their temper or forget their own principles of
conduct. (16.126)
16:127 And do thou be patient for thy patience is but from Allah; nor grieve over them: and distress
not thyself because of their plots. 2164
2164 In the previous verse are laid down the principles of conduct in controversy for all Muslims; 'if you catch them out, you
are not entitled to strike a heavier blow than you received, but it is better to restrain yourself and be patient.' There
patience was recommended. In this verse a command is directly addressed to the Prophet. 'Do thou be patient.' It is a
command: his standard as the Great Teacher is much higher; and he carried out in his life. His patience and selfrestraint
were under circumstances of extraordinary provocation. In his human wisdom it may sometimes have seemed
questionable whether forbearance and self-restraint might not be human weaknesses; he had to defend his people as
well as himself against the enemy's persecutions. He is told here that he need not entertain any such fears. Patience
(with constancy) in those circumstances was in accordance with Allah's own command. Nor was he to grieve if they
rejected Allah's Message; the Prophet had done his duty when he boldly and openly proclaimed it. Nor was his heart to
be troubled if they hatched secret plots against himself and his people, Allah would protect them. (16.127)
18:72 - He answered: "Did I not tell thee that thou canst have no patience with me?"
18:75 - He answered: "Did I not tell thee that thou canst have no patience with me?"
19:65 - "Lord of the heavens and of the earth and of all that is between them: so worship Him and
be constant and patient in His worship: knowest thou of any who is worthy of the same Name
as He?" 2515
2515 The more we taste of the truth and mystery of life, the more do we realise that there is no one to be mentioned in the
same breath as Allah. He is above all names. But when we think of His beautiful qualities, and picture them to
ourselves by names which give us some idea of Him, we can search the whole wide world of our imagination, and we
shall not find another to be compared with Him in name or quality. He is the One: praise be to Him! (19.65)
20:130 - Therefore be patient with what they say and celebrate (constantly) the praises of thy Lord
before the rising of the sun and before its setting; yea celebrate them for part of the hours of
the night and at the sides of the day: that thou mayest have (spiritual) joy. 26542655
2654 All good men must be patient with what seems to them evil around them. That does not mean that they should sit still
and do nothing to destroy evil; for the fight against evil is one of the cardinal points in Islam. What they are told is that
they must not be impatient: they must pray to Allah and commune with Him, so that their patience and faith may be
strengthened, and they may be able the better to grapple with evil. For they thus not only get strength in this world but
pleasure of Allah in the Hereafter as well. (20.130)
