Well it means to use even a bad experience/event to create something positive in life or in an another way it can be translated to make something positive out of negative experiences. 

Life has really tested me with ups and downs for this few weeks. There are times until I stop and thinking,'why?..why are all these happens to me?..'. But then I realized, 'because Allah loves me, so that is why He tested me. so that I will remember him, and pray and keep repenting to Him. because He miss my words..'. O Allah, I beg forgiveness for all my wrongdoings and please never let me go astray. Hold me tightly and led me into your way..

So that I will not hardly put my thought into the gloomy of problems, I tried to take all the problems as a test for me from Him. InsyaAllah,if we remember Him, He will remember us too. So say thanks to all the problems, because it reminds you that you have HIM to be relied on. Alhamdulillah. :')

It is clear that this life is filled with calamities, tests, and trials and that every believer will be 

subjected to many of these. Sometimes these trials are within himself, sometimes with his 

wealth and sometimes with his loved ones.  These preordained trials and calamities, from the 

One who is All-Wise, will touch the believer in various ways and manners; if the believer 

does not have the correct view regarding the matter of testing, then he may err seriously, 

especially since some of the calamities are painful and profound.  

Many people are negligent about the wisdoms behind trials and testing; they may not 

understand that Allaah ( ) does not test us as a punishment, but rather as a mercy.  The 

believer should look at the matter of ibtilaa’ (testing and trials) through the textual proofs in 

the Qur’aan and authentic Sunnah of the Prophet ( ) so that he can stand on a firm ground 

regarding these matters. 

Yes, life is a test and a trial; we are tested everyday in this life. Our wealth is a test; the 

spouse is a test; the children are tests; poverty and wealth are tests, and likewise health and 

illnesses are tests. We are tested in everything we possess and in that which we encounter in 

this life until we meet Allaah, the Most High. 

Afflictions, and
