عَجَبًا لأَمْرِ الْمُؤْمِنِ إِنَّ أَمْرَهُ كُلَّهُ خَيْرٌ وَلَيْسَ ذَاكَ لأَحَدٍ إِلاَّ لِلْمُؤْمِنِ إِنْ أَصَابَتْهُ سَرَّاءُ شَكَرَ فَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُ وَإِنْ أَصَابَتْهُ ضَرَّاءُ صَبَرَ فَكَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُ

Transliteration

'Ajaban li-amril-mu'min, inna amrahu kullahu khayr, wa laysa dhaka li-ahadin illa lil-mu'min: in asabathu sarra'u shakara fakana khayran lah, wa in asabathu darra'u sabara fakana khayran lah

Translation

Narrated Suhayb (RA): The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "How amazing is the affair of the believer! All of his affairs are good for him, and this is for no one except the believer. If something good happens to him, he is grateful, and that is good for him; and if something bad happens to him, he is patient, and that is good for him."
