[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was gifted a mare by the king of Persia, which he rode using a hair rope. He then put me behind him and rode with me on the back of the mare, traveling slowly. He turned to me and said, "O young boy." I replied, "Here I am, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Guard Allah, and He will guard you. Guard Allah and you will find Him in front of you. Recognize Allah in times of ease, and He will recognize you in times of difficulty. When you ask, ask Allah. And when you seek help, seek help from Allah. The pens have been lifted and the ink has dried. If the whole world gathered to benefit you with something that Allah has not decreed for you, they would not be able to do so. And if they gathered to harm you with something that Allah has not decreed for you, they would not be able to do so. If you are able to be patient in times of distress, then do so. For indeed, with patience there is relief. And know that with difficulty comes ease."
أُهْدِيَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بَغْلَةً أَهْدَاهَا لَهُ كِسْرَى فَرَكِبَهَا بِحَبْلٍ مِنْ شَعْرٍ ثُمَّ أَرْدَفَنِي خَلْفَهُ ثُمَّ سَارَ بِي مَلِيًّا ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ فَقَالَ «يَا غُلَامُ» قُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «احْفَظِ اللَّهَ يَحْفَظْكَ احْفَظِ اللَّهَ تَجِدْهُ أَمَامَكَ تَعَرَّفْ إِلَى اللَّهِ فِي الرَّخَاءِ يَعْرِفْكَ فِي الشِّدَّةِ وَإِذَا سَأَلْتَ فَاسْأَلِ اللَّهَ وَإِذَا اسْتَعَنْتَ فَاسْتَعِنْ بِاللَّهِ قَدْ مَضَى الْقَلَمُ بِمَا هُوَ كَائِنٌ فَلَوْ جَهَدَ النَّاسُ أَنْ يَنْفَعُوكَ بِمَا لَمْ يَقْضِهِ اللَّهُ لَكَ لَمْ يَقْدِرُوا عَلَيْهِ وَلَوْ جَهَدَ النَّاسَ أَنْ يَضُرُّوكَ بِمَا لَمْ يَكْتُبْهُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ لَمْ يَقْدِرُوا عَلَيْهِ فَإِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ أَنْ تَعْمَلَ بِالصَّبِرِ مَعَ الْيَقِينِ فَافْعَلْ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَسْتَطِعْ فَاصْبِرْ فَإِنَّ فِي الصَّبْرِ عَلَى مَا تَكْرَهُهُ خَيْرًا كَثِيرًا وَاعْلَمْ أَنَّ مَعَ الصَّبْرِ النَّصْرَ وَاعْلَمْ أَنَّ مَعَ الْكَرْبِ الْفَرَجِ وَاعْلَمْ أَنَّ مَعَ الْعُسْرِ الْيَسَرَ»
