Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Trials will cover you like the dark patches of a night. The one who attains salvation will be he who lives on the high peaks (of mountains, etc.), sustaining himself on the milk of goats, or the one who holds the reins of his horse, staying away from the highway of life (engaged in jihad), and eats from his sword (from the spoils of war)."
