Sayyiduna Jabir (radiyallahu ‘anhu) says, “Once Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) was asked, ‘Which type of Iman is best’? Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) replied, “Exercising patience and overlooking/pardoning”

(Refer: Al Matalibul ‘Aliyah, vol. 13 pg. 167- Hadith: 3141)

Imam Tabarani (rahimahullah) has authentically recorded the following statement of Sayyiduna ‘Abdullah ibn Mas’ud (radiyallahu ‘anhu):

“…And exercising patience is half of Iman”

(Al Mu’jamul Kabir, Hadith: 8544. Refer: Fathul Bari, under the first chapter of Kitabul Iman)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best
