Cooling the Temper (Al-Sharrhh)
In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful
۞ (O Prophet), Did We not lay open your breast 1 and lifted from thee the burden 2 that had well-nigh broken your back? 3 And exalted thy fame? 4 But lo! with hardship goeth ease, 5 Verily, with the hardship, there is relief (i.e. there is one hardship with two reliefs, so one hardship cannot overcome two reliefs). 6 Therefore, when thou art free (from thine immediate task), still labour hard, 7 And strive to please thy Lord. 8
