Abu Musa reported that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: There is none to show more patience at listening to the most irksome things than Allah, the Exalted and Glorious. ' Partnership is associated to Him (polytheism) and (fatherhood) of a child is attributed to Him, but in spite of this He protects them (people) and provides them sustenance.

This hadith has been transmitted on the authority of Abu Musa with a slight variation of wording.

'Abdullah bin Qais (RA) reported from Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) that none is more forbearing in listening to the most irksome things than Allah, the Exalted. They associate rivals with him, attribute sonhood to Him, but in spite of this He provides them sustenance, grants them safety, confers upon them so many things.
