not better not to spoil your family's happiness?


When returning home, try to forget your problems. Be happy with
your family. Eat with them. Have a laugh and enjoy their company.
Islam has also regarded patience and refusing to make complaints as
good behaviour and has even allocated a reward for it.


"Imam 'Ali (AS) stated: 'When hardship fails upon a Muslim, he
should not make complaints about Allah to otherpeople, but that he
should take the problems to Allah who possesses the key to all
problems'."


"Imam 'An (AS) also stated; 'It is written in the Tawrah; whoever
makesacomplaint about a hardshipwhichhas befallenhim, isin fact
complainingaboutAllah'."'"TheProphet(SA)ofIslamstated:'Whoever
experiences hardship with his health and does not make complaints
(about it) to people, then it is incumbent on Allah to forgive all his sins".
