O assembly of jinn and men! did there not come to you apostles from among you, relating to you My communications and warning you of the meeting of this day of yours? They shall say: We bear witness against ourselves; and this world's life deceived them, and they shall bear witness against their own souls that they were unbelievers.
[The Cattle (6), 130]
Hearts on that day shall palpitate,
Their eyes cast down.
[The Draggers (79), 8-9]
Imam Sadiq (a.s.) said: "Verily everything is intimidated by a believer because the religion of Allah causes him to be powerful, and he is not intimidated by anything, which is the characteristic of any believer." - Biharul Anwar, vol. 67, p. 30
Imam Khomeini wrote that, "…the inward being of the impatient person is full of anxiety and alarm. His heart is full of tremors and shaky, and this is itself the greatest calamity that can befall a human being and deprive him of peace."
'A free human being is free in all circumstances. Should a misfortune befall him he bears it with patience (sabr). If calamities strike him, they don't shatter him.'
Do not force your children to behave like you, for surely they have been created for a time which is different to your time.
Imam Ali [AS]

And others which you have not yet been able to achieve Allah has surely encompassed them, and Allah has power over all things.
[The Victory (48), 21]
