The Semantics of “Religion-Based Suffering” and Its Systematic Quranic Application Based on Bayan al-Saadah

The Quran, as a comprehensive book of the three dimensions of revelation, intellect, and heart, contains numerous terms regarding the category of “suffering,” the most important of which are: "Kabad", "Anat", "Kadah", "Nasab", "Usr", "Darr", "Bass", "Qarh", "Azi", "Shiqa", "Alum", "Musiba", and "Bala". Based on the present research, the seeker perceives four general models of suffering, which are: "existential suffering", "religious suffering", "rational suffering", and "heart-centered suffering". This research, with a descriptive-analytical perspective, only looks at the model of "religious suffering" in the most frequent mystical commentary on the Quran, Bayan al-Sa'adah fi Maqamat al-Ibadah, and seeks to answer these questions from a Quranic-mystical perspective: ۱) What are the examples of religious suffering and which Quranic words can be considered examples of religious suffering? ۲) What is the way to escape from it? ۳) What is the reward for religious suffering? In monitoring the collection of Bayan al-Saadah's commentary, the most prominent words that can be considered for "religious-based suffering" are: "bas" and "zar" with the application of "faith and action", "qarh" and "museiba" with the application of "jihad", "azi" with the application of "hijrat" and "avoiding intercourse", "anat" with the application of "friendship with non-believers" and "seclusion".
