for another seventy years?"
Job never became ungrateful to Allah despite the many trials he was sent.
Instead he would praise and thank Him.
Life became harder still and there was nothing to eat, so Job's wife who had
beautiful long hair that she used to braid decided to cut one braid and give it
to a woman in exchange for a large amount of food. When Job saw the food
he was surprised and asked, "Where did you get it from?" But she told him
she had been given the food in exchange for serving some people. The next
day she cut and sold the remaining braid of hair and returned home with
another large quantity of food. This time Job swore that he would not eat any
of it until she told him exactly how she got all the food. Job's wife took off her
scarf and he realized what she had done and became very upset and vowed
to beat her one hundred times when Allah restored him to good health.
Job called out to Allah saying, "satan has afflicted me with harm and pain."
Whereupon Allah told him, "Stamp your foot on the ground there is cool water
for another seventy years?"
