Sayyiduna Ubada bin Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that a man came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah! Which deed is the best?" He (peace be upon him) replied: "To have faith in Allah, to affirm Him, and to strive in His path." The man said: "O Messenger of Allah! I intended a deed easier than this." He (peace be upon him) said: "Patience and tolerance." But he again said: "O Messenger of Allah! I intended a deed lighter than this." He (peace be upon him) said: "Then do not accuse Allah regarding whatever decision He makes about you (i.e., be content with Allah's decree)."
