01:26without being tested
01:28before you
01:32believers were tested
01:34even the prophets among them were tested
01:36until they said
01:38Allah, Allah, Surah Allah, Karib
01:39and the Ryan
01:42help came
01:43until that time we have to be patient
01:45to carry

02:41what's the root of it
02:44when difficulties come
02:48then you see
02:48who's going to be patient
02:50there's an ayat
02:54do you think
02:54you'll be left alone
02:55until Allah
02:56can see who
02:57tries hard
