Husnu Zhan with Allah

Here a story :

Narrated by Al-Hafiz Ibn Abi Al-Dunya in Al-Ridha 'Anillah from a famous scholar in Kufah, Masruq bin Ajda :

In a rural village, lived a family with their pets, a chicken, a donkey and a dog. They loved their pets as their pets gave them lot of advantages; chicken to wake them up in the morning to perform Subuh prayer, the donkey to take water and the dog to keep their house safe.

One day, their chicken had been eaten by a fox. The family felt really sad, then the father said: "Don't worry. InsyaAllah, there is something good behind what happened."

A few days later, a wolf caught their donkey. Once again, the family grieved for the loss and the father said: "It's ok. InsyaAllah, there is something good behind what happened."

Not long afterwards, their dogs suddenly died. After seeing the sadness in every faces of family members, the father said the same thing: "It's ok. There is something good behind what happened."

Masruq said: "One morning, as soon as they got up from sleep, they realized that all of the residences of their village had been captured and brought away by a group of thieves. But they were the only family that was safe.

It was because, the thieves only came to the houses that had the sound of animals from inside.
