Rejoicing when in difficulty
Question
Is it correct according to Islam that a believer rejoices on his suffering too because suffering produces endurance?
Answer
If he expresses pain, but together with expressing pain he is also pleased with the decision and decree of Allah Ta`ala then this is correct.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
