ALLAH
SAYS: “And give glad tidings to those who patiently persevere, and who say, when afflicted with calamity: ‘To Allah we belong, and to Him is our return.’ They are those on whom (descend) blessings from their lord, and mercy. And they are the truly guided.” [1].

We relate in Ibn as-Sunnī from Abū Hurayrah
, who reported that the Messenger of Allah
said: “Let every one of you say: ‘To Allah we belong, and to Him is our return’ for everything, even for [a broken] sandal-thong, because it is a misfortune.” [2].
I say: ash-Shis‘, with a kasrah on the shīn and with a sukūn on the sīn, means one of the thongs of a sandal which is fastened to the thong between the middle toe and the one next to it.
