Allah is with the Patient

If Allah takes away something from you, guaranteed He is going to give you something better. What did Allah take from the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ? Is this not the most beloved person to Allah on this earth? Yet Allah took away his mother, and his father, and his grandfather, and his uncle, and his wife, and his sons. What's left for him? Allah.

He who has no one — the only thing they have, the only one they have, is Allah. That's why Allah says:

وَوَجَدَكَ عَآئِلًۭا فَأَغْنَىٰ

"And He found you poor and made you self-sufficient." And Muhammad ﷺ — the Prophet ﷺ is a Yateem (an orphan).

So who nurtures the Prophet? Who looks after him? Allah. He replaces his father, brother, sister, cousin, children — replaces them with the Creator.
