The Temperance of Trials and Tribulations
The virtue of temperance involves moderation in all our actions and the exercise of restraint, patience, and forbearance when faced with provocation, oppression, or tribulation. The early Muslim community endured many hardships in Mecca while trying to teach others about Islam. The Prophet ﷺ suffered the immense loss of his beloved wife, Lady Khadija, and his beloved uncle, Abu Talib. This was followed by the tribulations he experienced in the city of Al-Ta’if. Despite these trials, he exhibited impeccable patience and restraint, surrendering only to God. Following his steadfast devotion, he was granted many openings. The Prophet’s exemplary response to every trial teaches us how to apply the virtue of temperance in our daily lives, thus drawing us closer to the divine.
