It was narrated from Anas ibn Malik that the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said:
“Great reward comes with great trials. When Allah loves a people, He tests them, and whoever accepts it attains His pleasure, whereas whoever shows discontent with it incurs His wrath.” Narrated and classed as hasan by at-Tirmidhi (2396); classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in as-Silsilah as-Saheehah, no. 146
In this hadith, we find that the Prophet (SAW) has provided a message of relief for those who endure difficulties with patience. He also associated greatness of difficulties and calamities with higher rewards.

Given that this life has its share of challenges and difficulties for all, Allah SWT has provided an opportunity of high rewards for those who endure these challenges with patience rather than with complaints and ingratitude. And for those who show displeasure and discontent with Allah’s decree end up in a lose-lose situation because not only they have to live through their current suffering but also incur Allah’s wrath for their displeasure and discontent with His decree.
