Why You Should Be Patient and Not Visit Traditionalists- Surah Tin 4-7

Let me use a little analysis to describe the case of man when he rushes to traditionalists during trial. According to surah Tin verse 4 - 7: “We have indeed created man in the best of moulds, Then do We abase him (to be) the lowest of the low,- Except such as believe and do righteous deeds: For they shall have a reward unfailing.

The above means as you were in perfect status before Allah struck you with affliction. If you are patient enough and worship him wholeheartedly during this period Allah will elevate you back to your former status then above it to a far greater status.

However if you visit traditionalists to help you with you with your situation then you will continue to deteriorate instead of elevating.

If you noticed, for those who have gone through trial and came out, you will realize you didn’t really do anything new to be free from the affliction. All you did was to think of where you sinned or those things you previously did but stopped.

In a nutshell Allah reduces you so that He can elevate you but you have to be patient and worship him only.
