00:00Why is patience so important?
00:02What is patience?
00:04In our culture, it is said that patience is to endure.
00:10What I keep saying is that this is Pakistani patience.
00:12The Quranic patience is one thing, the Pakistani patience is something else.
00:15The patience in the Quran is that whatever you are doing,
00:19whether it is easy or difficult,
00:22whether someone supports you, someone doesn't,
00:24someone is alone, someone is with everyone,
00:27someone feels weak, someone feels strong,
00:30it doesn't matter, what I have to do, I have to do it.
00:33I don't want to move, I don't want to move back,
00:35I want to take a slow step, but I have to take a step.
00:39I have to keep moving forward.
00:40This is called patience.
00:42If you want to capture a picture of patience in your mind,
00:45that there is a storm, sand is coming towards you,
00:48and you are walking, this is patience.
00:52Patience is to keep moving forward, not moving back.
00:55It keeps moving forward.
00:57This is patience.
00:59There is a toughness in it,
01:01there is a willpower in it,
01:04and because of that, it keeps moving forward.
01:06This is called patience.
01:07This is why we use the words patience and steadfastness together.
01:10Patience and steadfastness.
01:12Why? Because in Urdu,
01:15there is steadfastness in it.
01:17There is steadfastness in it.
01:19What is the importance of this?
01:21Suppose someone was good, he believed in Allah,
01:23he read books, messengers, angels,
01:25offered prayers, gave charity,
01:27took care of people,
01:29fulfilled promises,
01:31but then he became weak.
01:33What was lacking?
01:35Lack of patience.
01:37When there was a lack of patience,
01:39all the good deeds that he did,
01:41he was going in a positive direction,
01:43they started becoming useless.
01:45Why? Because later on, he said,
01:47I did a lot of good deeds, but now I don't have that much patience.
01:49I can't do it. It's too much.
01:51It's too much.
01:53What is this? Lack of patience.
01:55I...
01:57In men and women,
01:59there is a lack of patience in different ways.
02:01Let me tell you something about you.
02:03I have heard it many times.
02:05He says, I have a lot of prayers, etc.
02:07I thought I should start offering prayers.
02:09I thought I should go and attend,
02:11and learn something.
02:13So I went there.
02:15For the first time, I did purdah,
02:17and I offered prayers.
02:19The priest told me,
02:21you have offered prayers in a wrong way.
02:23Then I said,
02:25I can't come back here.
02:27These people are so judgmental.
02:29They have judged me so much.
02:31I can't come back here.
02:33Because,
02:35how did they tell me
02:37such a big fit?
02:39He gave me such a terrible comment.
02:41Now, let's compare.
02:43This person went to offer prayers
02:45in the mosque.
02:47He said,
02:49your prayers won't be accepted.
02:53Your prayers won't be accepted.
02:55I said, okay.
03:01I had two different reactions.
03:09It didn't make any difference.
03:11Why? Because...
03:13Their patience is tested
03:15in a different way.
03:17Your patience is tested in a different way.
03:19If someone says something to you,
03:21it's like a dagger.
03:23It doesn't hit you once.
03:25You take it out, and then put it back in.
03:27You take it out, and then put it back in.
03:29You take it out, and then put it back in.
03:31Oh my God!
03:33How many times did he say,
03:35one time?
03:37He hit me on the back.
03:39If you tell him a thousand times,
03:41he'll hit you back.
03:43Did you say that too?
03:45Yes.
03:47Our patience is tested,
03:49and their patience is tested.
03:51We are God's creation.
03:53Your efforts are different.
03:55Your efforts are different.
03:57Yes.
03:59Yes.
04:01Yes.
04:03There is only one command,
04:05but its test is different.
04:07There is only one command.
04:09There is only one command.
04:11There is only one command.
04:13There is only one command.
04:15But as God said,
04:17He made night and day different.
04:19He made man and woman different.
04:21He made night and day different.
04:23He made man and woman different.
04:25He made night and day different.
04:27He made man and woman different.
04:29Our psychology is different.
04:31Our thought process is different.
04:33Our weaknesses are different.
04:35He made them so strong,
04:37He made us so weak.
04:39He made us so strong.
04:41He made us so weak.
04:43This is the system of God.
04:45He made us so strong.
04:47But the truth is,
04:49no matter how good a person is,
04:51if he doesn't have patience,
04:53he will ruin all goodness.
04:55And patience is not tested
04:57in ease and comfort.
04:59Patience is tested
05:01in ease and comfort.
05:03Patience is tested
05:05in ease and comfort.
05:07Patience is tested
05:09in ease and comfort.
05:11Those who are truthful
05:13are the righteous.
05:15They have truly done the right thing.
