Özet:

The conceptual perspective of the 'patience (sabr)' has been explained in almost all of the publications on the exegesis of the Qur’an, has been investigated in linguistics/contextualization researches, even several works/pamphlets that cover only ‘patience’ in Sufism were written. However, in the recent years in parts of the society, like family, traffic, business life, neighbor relations, even in the street impatience/hastiness or aggression has been seen. People tend to be forceful rather than being steady or acting wisely when something bad happens. Hence, we decided to bring forward the concept of ‘patience’, which is vital to make modern people realize this term that could save the Muslims on both sides, and its reward that has been understudied for years. In this paper, we cover ‘patience’, including its reward, which is semantically misunderstood, due to several reasons, that make people forget about their willpower and responsibility. We aimed to affect the audience positively, and discuss the word ‘patience’ by supporting it with Quran verses.  Instead of giving the lexical information on the word ‘patience,’ it’s types, people’s reaction in fatality or trouble, and especially ‘patience’ and its rewards in the sight of Allah; we try to explain the concept in detail.
