We present here The Story of Prophet Ayyub.

 

THE STORY OF PROPHET AYYUB

Ayyub or Job lived in the ninth century B.C. in Hawran, near Damascus in Syria. Wise and compassionate, Prophet Ayyub was also very rich, with bountiful fields, herds of cattle, and a large family.

The villagers thought he had it easy. If his blessings were taken away, they said, he would no longer be grateful to Allah.

So Allah decided to test Prophet Ayyub.

Allah destroyed Prophet Ayyub’s cattle and crops. His children died. He was ill, poor and alone.

But Prophet Ayub did not complain.

He continued praying: “I am overcome by distress. But You are the most merciful of those that are merciful.”

Allah saw and said: “Strike your feet on the ground.” A spring gushed forth. Its water healed Prophet Ayyub.

Allah restored his prosperity and gave him a new family.

The Moral of the Story

Allah rewards patience. Even the wealthy are tested.
