Ash-Sharh 94:6

The Promise Repeated
إِنَّ مَعَ ٱلۡعُسۡرِ يُسۡرࣰا ٦
Lo! with hardship goeth ease.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
Yes, surely with hardship comes ease.
Insight
According to Elmalılı, the existence of ease does not mean everyone will surely reach it. The one who reaches it is the one who believes this promise and bears hardship with patience.
Reflect
Say this promise to yourself out loud once more.
