The story of Ayyub A. S.
Alhamdulillah, Ayyub A. S was one of the prophets of banee Isra'eeel and he was a man who is grateful and thankful to Allah.
Allah has blessed him with wealth, children and everything.
So many years, he was in happiness until one day, Allah s.w.t tested him with a strange illness.
He tried every medicine but to no avail. Rather the sickness kept increasing.
All his children and everything was taken away from him but he never forget to praise Allah.
So one-day, his wife said to him why don't you ask Allah to grant you health as you are his grateful servant.
Ayyub was hurt by her words and said to her i will strike you hundred for been ungrateful to my lord.
Allah says,
Sad 38:41
وَٱذْكُرْ عَبْدَنَآ أَيُّوبَ إِذْ نَادَىٰ رَبَّهُۥٓ أَنِّى مَسَّنِىَ ٱلشَّيْطَٰنُ بِنُصْبٍ وَعَذَابٍ
And remember Our servant Job, when he called to his Lord, "Indeed, Satan has touched me with hardship and torment."
Sad 38:42
ٱرْكُضْ بِرِجْلِكَۖ هَٰذَا مُغْتَسَلٌۢ بَارِدٌ وَشَرَابٌ
[So he was told], "Strike [the ground] with your foot; this is a [spring for a] cool bath and drink."
Sad 38:43
وَوَهَبْنَا لَهُۥٓ أَهْلَهُۥ وَمِثْلَهُم مَّعَهُمْ رَحْمَةً مِّنَّا وَذِكْرَىٰ لِأُو۟لِى ٱلْأَلْبَٰبِ
And We granted him his family and a like [number] with them as mercy from Us and a reminder for those of understanding.
Sad 38:44
وَخُذْ بِيَدِكَ ضِغْثًا فَٱضْرِب بِّهِۦ وَلَا تَحْنَثْۗ إِنَّا وَجَدْنَٰهُ صَابِرًاۚ نِّعْمَ ٱلْعَبْدُۖ إِنَّهُۥٓ أَوَّابٌ
[We said], "And take in your hand a bunch [of grass] and strike with it and do not break your oath."[1] Indeed, We found him patient, an excellent servant. Indeed, he was one repeatedly turning back [to Allāh].
