For the rectification of affairs, the removal of distress, and the facilitation of matters, Allah has commanded His servants to fear Him, to be patient, to be content with His decree, and to seek refuge in Him alone, with certainty that all affairs are in His hand. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, advised Ibn Abbas to guard Allah so that Allah would guard him, and if he asked, he should ask Allah, and if he sought help, he should seek help from Him, and to know that victory comes with patience and relief comes with distress.
