In The Name of Allaah The Most Merciful The Bestower of Mercy.
Imaam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz (rahimahullaah) said:
Whoever exercises patience during times of affliction, thankful during times of ease, submissive to Allaah (Glorified be He) when calamities occur, expresses disappointment about himself to Allaah, due to his sins and shortcomings, and seeks Allaah’s Mercy and Forgiveness, then indeed he [or she] will succeed with all success and with a praiseworthy end...

A few extract
.....
Disbelief and sins are
the cause of every affliction and evil in this life and the next. As for
Tawheed, belief in Allaah and His Messengers, obedience to Allaah and His
Messengers, holding fast to Allaah’s Sharee’ah and calling to it, and rejecting
what is in opposition to it, this is the cause of every good in this life and
the hereafter. And adhering firmly to it, enjoining it and
co-operating upon it is the [real] source of honour in this life and the
hereafter, safety from every hated thing and protection from every Fitnah, as
Allaah [The Most High] said:
يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِن تَنصُرُوا
اللَّهَ يَنصُرْكُمْ وَيُثَبِّتْ أَقْدَامَكُمْ
O you who believe! If
you help (in the cause of) Allah, He will help you, and make your foothold
firm. 47:7
