Hadith on Seerah: Seek strength in the Prophet’s biography

Aisha reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “O people, whenever a calamity afflicts one of the people or the believers, let them be strengthened by remembering the calamity that afflicted me, with which no one was struck besides me. Verily, no one from my nation will be struck by a calamity more severe than my affliction.”

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ أَيُّمَا أَحَدٍ مِنَ النَّاسِ أَوْ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أُصِيبَ بِمُصِيبَةٍ فَلْيَتَعَزَّ بِمُصِيبَتِهِ بِي عَنِ الْمُصِيبَةِ الَّتِي تُصِيبُهُ بِغَيْرِي فَإِنَّ أَحَدًا مِنْ أُمَّتِي لَنْ يُصَابَ بِمُصِيبَةٍ بَعْدِي أَشَدَّ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ مُصِيبَتِي
