Is Is A Requirement For Reward To Recognize Each Test Before Showing Patience?
A Muslim needs to know his life is a test. God is just. Even if a person has no realization that he is passing through a test, his or her suffering will be rewarded. If person is mentally retarded, this is not his test but of the ones who belong to him. However the retarded person will be rewarded for his sufferings. The story of Moses journey with a servant of God is a good example to understand the scheme of God.and yes we will come to know of the realities of the matters in the hereafter insha Allah.
