Unfortunately, due to distance from Islamic knowledge, people who possess a mindset of patience and forbearance are rarely seen in our society now. It is as if almost every second person appears afflicted with impatience in some way.

If the weather becomes too hot or cold, impatience takes hold; if one is not given the opportunity to recite Hamd or Na'at, impatience takes hold; if someone hurts one's feelings, impatience takes hold; if one doesn't get a good house, impatience takes hold; if mobile signals are weak or the internet does not work, impatience takes hold; if one is not invited to a wedding or banquet, impatience takes hold.
