The Worldly Life is full of tests and trials. Everyone is tested according to his Iman. The prophets among the people were tested most in their lives. Ibrahim A’laihissalam faced the enmity of his father and nation on inviting them towards Tawhid. Yusuf A’laihissalam found his brothers treacherous and faced trial after trial until he was successful and acknowledged by all. Ayyub A’laihissalam was tested by his family, wealth and health so that he was taken everything back and then given in excess in this world after finishing the trials and being patient on it. After the prophets were tested the people who were near to them in obeying Allah’s commandments. Every person is still in state of test either by giving or depriving some of the blessings in this World. People are misguided by considering the life in the world to be eternal. Allah Ta’alah says in The Qur’an:

Al-Kahf: The Cave: 7

Indeed, We have made that which is on the earth adornment for it that We may test them [as to] which of them is best in deed.

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏”‏ إِنَّ مِنَ الشَّجَرِ شَجَرَةً لاَ يَسْقُطُ وَرَقُهَا، وَإِنَّهَا مَثَلُ الْمُسْلِمِ، فَحَدِّثُونِي مَا هِيَ ‏”‏‏.‏ فَوَقَعَ

النَّاسُ فِي شَجَرِ الْبَوَادِي‏.‏ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَوَقَعَ فِي نَفْسِي أَنَّهَا النَّخْلَةُ، فَاسْتَحْيَيْتُ ثُمَّ قَالُوا حَدِّثْنَا مَا هِيَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏”‏ هِيَ النَّخْلَةُ ‏”‏‏.‏

Narrated Ibn `Umar: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Amongst the trees, there is a tree, the leaves of which do not fall and is like a Muslim. Tell me the name of that tree.” Everybody started thinking about the trees of the desert areas. And I thought of the date-palm tree but felt shy to answer the others then asked, “What is that tree, O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) ?” He replied, “It is the date-palm tree.”
