4031. It was narrated from Anas bin Mâlik that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "The greatest reward comes with the greatest trial. When Allâh loves a people He tests them. Whoever accepts that wins His pleasure but whoever is discontent with that earns His wrath." (Hasan)
4031 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «عِظَمُ الْجَزَاءِ مَعَ عِظَمِ الْبَلَاءِ، وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ إِذَا أَحَبَّ قَوْمًا ابْتَلَاهُمْ، فَمَنْ رَضِيَ فَلَهُ الرِّضَا، وَمَنْ سَخِطَ فَلَهُ السُّخْطُ»

Examination is beneficial for a slave. So, he has to be content with the decree of Allâh and should make all his efforts within the boundaries of the Shari'ah. If a slave expresses his displeasure on a trial that befalls on him, he will not avail any benefit as the trial will end at its fixed time, but the slave loses his reward and displeases his Lord.
