قال شيخ الإسلام ابن تيمية رحمه الله:
" المؤمن مأمور عند المصائب أن يصبر ويسلم،
وعند الذنوب أن يستغفر ويتوب،
قال الله تعالى: {فَاصْبِرْ إنَّ وَعْدَ اللَّهِ حَقٌّ وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لِذَنْبِكَ}،
فأمره بالصبر على المصائب، والاستغفار من المعائب ".#الفرقان (ص264)

Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله said:

During hardship, the believer is commanded with patience and acceptance, and when [having committed] sins, to seek forgiveness and repentance.

Allaah تعالى says:

{So be patient, [O Muhammad]. Indeed, the promise of Allaah is truth. And ask forgiveness for your sin…} – Ghaafir 40:55.

So He commanded him with patience during hardship, and seeking forgiveness for the shortcomings (sins).
