Pearl of Wisdom
used to say the following when faced with an affliction, 'All praise is due to Allah, Who did not afflict me in my faith, and all praise is due to Allah Who, if He had willed for my affliction to be greater than it is could have made it so, and all praise is due to Allah for the command that he willed to be and it is.'
Imam Ja'far ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq [as] Bihar al-Anwar, v. 78, p. 268, no. 183
