[b] [quote] Raushan UNITED ARAB EMIRATES Posted - Sunday, January 28, 2007  -  9:26 AM

Patience have no meaning if we dont accept the presence of an element of "oppression"or "wrong' done to the person. [/quote]
[blue]Patience is prescribed only  in adversity.  Please note that this adversity is a state of hardship, affliction or misfortune which is but a trial from Allah.  Please read the verses which I have referenced in my previous post which make it clear.[/blue][quote]Patience is a pure live action "to stop oneself against his/her motive,even if right.'' when you fight with others you stop others,here you fight with yourself. Patience is an art of bravery ,hard to learn as how to train oneself in such situations. [/quote]

[blue]You are wrong my dear Raushan. REVENGE is commendable in times of oppression and not patience.

Please read Surah Ash-shura from verse 36 to 39 to understand it. I quote the translation of the meaning of verse 42:39.[/blue]

[i][green]And those who, when an oppressive wrong is done to them, they take revenge. [/green] [/i] (Ash-Shura 42:39)

[quote] Its not inactiveness or cowardiness but an act which is decided after a deep thinking about the consequences of the circumstances [/quote]
[blue]But what  Allah says is that patience  is ‘a hard thing for all but the humble in spirit.’

In 2:177  Allah has included those ‘who are patient in misfortune and hardship and in time of peril’ among the qualities of the  “truly pious” and “God-conscious”. It would be wrong to interpret misfortune, hardship and times of peril as 'oppression'.[/blue][/b] [/size=1][/quote]
