Have patience you foolish lady; I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: 'Whoever endures its hardships and difficulties[1] then I will be a witness, or an intercessor for him on the Day of Judgment."
[He said:] There are narrations on this topic from Abū Sa'eed, Sufyān bin Abī Zuhair, and Subaī'ah Al-Aslamiyyah. (Sahih)
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is [Hasan] Sahih Gharib [as a narration of 'Ubaidullāh].
