Sahih al-Bukhari 7181 (Book 97, Hadith 92)
move in whatever direction the wind forces them to move and when the wind becomes still, it stand
straight. Such is the similitude of the believer: He is disturbed by calamities (but is like the fresh plant
he regains his normal state soon). And the example of a disbeliever is that of a pine tree (which
remains) hard and straight till Allah cuts it down when He will.” (See Hadith No. 546 and 547, Vol.
7).
“ مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ كَمَثَلِ خَامَةِ الزَّرْعِ، يَفِيءُ وَرَقُهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ أَتَتْهَا الرِّيحُ تُكَفِّئُهَا، فَإِذَا سَكَنَتِ اعْتَدَلَتْ، وَكَذَلِكَ الْمُؤْمِنُ يُكَفَّأُ بِالْبَلاَءِ، وَمَثَلُ الْكَافِرِ كَمَثَلِ الأَرْزَةِ صَمَّاءَ مُعْتَدِلَةً حَتَّى يَقْصِمَهَا اللَّهُ إِذَا شَاءَ ”.

Among the six canonical hadith collections of Sunni Islam, known as the Kutub al-Sittah, Sahih al-Bukhari is frequently accorded the highest rank. This esteemed status is a testament to the rigorous scholarly methods employed by its compiler, Muḥammad al-Bukhārī, who finished his work around 847. The collection is vast, containing an estimated 7,563 individual reports detailing the sayings and actions of the Prophet Muhammad. These are carefully categorized into 97 chapters, providing a comprehensive framework for understanding Islamic doctrine, law, and spiritual practice.
