Life and Islam
The life of this world is just a testing period and a place to do deeds; only in the life of the Hereafter the real results will be declared by the One Who is All Knowing and Well-Aware of everything.
T
his world is not a place for full rewards, nor is this world a place for complete punishments; but a place for doing deeds.
When someone does evil deeds, Allah may warn him with a punishment in this world, so that he may realize his mistake and improve his conduct; and at times Allah punishes a whole community so they may serve as a warning to mankind, and at times, He extends the rope of the evil-doers and does not punish them in this life at all, so that they may get a full recompense for their evil deeds in the Hereafter.
The more pious and Allah-fearing the person, the more he/she is tested by Allah. If we simply study the tests and tribulations that Allah put on His Prophets like Nooh (peace be upon him), and Ibrahim (peace be upon him), and Moosa (peace be upon him), and Isa (peace be upon him), and Ayyub (peace be upon him), and Yunus (peace be upon him), etc., and above all, on our beloved Prophet Muhammed (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), we will realize that a normal human being would absolutely break down under these conditions and the weight laid upon them as tests by Allah. These pious and righteous slaves of Allah were tested beyond comprehension, but under the guidance of Allah , they always remained patient and steadfast on the Path commanded to them by Allah.
Therefore, The more pious one is, the more he/she is tested by Allah; so that He may raise them in status and honor in the life of the Hereafter. Allah Knows Who amongst His servants can bear His tests, and who cannot. Therefore we should never COMPLAIN Allah on testing us, but rather follow the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and always PRAY to Merciful Lord to not test us beyond our capacity or lay upon us the severe trials and tribulations that He laid upon the people before us; and bear trial and affliction according to the Plan and Decree of Allah and pray for Mercy and patience, and stay steadfast on the Straight Path.
