What words can be addressed to a believing young woman who has been afflicted by the death of her fiancé before their wedding, to strengthen her resolve and alleviate her sorrow?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is recommended to be patient and seek reward from Allah during a calamity, for Allah Almighty gives glad tidings of prayer, mercy, and guidance to the patient. If Allah loves a people, He tests them to raise their ranks or expiate their sins. A believer must be content with Allah's decree, and whoever relieves a believer of a distress, Allah will relieve him of a distress on the Day of Resurrection.
