Statements such as &ldquo;I am angry with Allah&hellip;&rdquo; can take a person out of the fold of Islam. Therefore, I advise you to repent sincerely for what you said and never utter those kinds of statements again.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tWhen Allah (SWA) inflicts any hardships or calamity upon anyone, the purpose for this is to either test his true servants as Allah (SWA) in the Holy Quran has said,\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&ldquo;Be sure we shall test you with something of fear, and hunger and some loss of wealth and lives and fruits and glad tidings to those that bear patience&rdquo;.&nbsp; (Suarh Baqarah v.156)\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tSometimes it so happens for it to be a lesson for the people coming after not to commit that deed again as Allah (SWA) states in the Holy Quran:\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t&ldquo;And indeed before you we sent (Messengers) too many nations so we seized them with suffering and adversity so that they may fall into humility.&rdquo;&nbsp; (Surah Anaam v.42)\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tOr these tests can be a means of purification for the pious people.&nbsp; The Prophet of Allah Sallallahu Alahi Wasalam has said when a persons sins increases and nothing remains to remove it then Allah (SWA) inflicts this person with such sorrow which expiates his sins.&nbsp; (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tOnly Allah Knows Best\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tMohammed Tosir Miah\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\tDarul Ifta Birmingham<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Difficulties and hardships from Allah (SWA).
