قلت: وسمعت شيخ الإسلام ابن تيمية قدس الله روحه ونور ضريحه مرارا يقول: "ذكر الله الصبر الجميل، والصفح الجميل، والهجر الجميل فالصبر الجميل الذي لا شكوى معه، والهجر الجميل الذي لا أذى معه، والصفح الجميل الذي لا عتاب معه" انتهى.

وقال مجاهد ﴿فَصَبْرٌ جَمِيلٌ﴾ في غير جزع

وقال عمرو بن قيس ﴿فَصَبْرٌ جَمِيلٌ﴾ قال الرضا بالمصيبة والتسليم
