The Prophet [sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam] said: "The parable of a believer is that of a fresh and moist plant; the wind tilts it this way and that way, and so is the believer; he continues to be subject to affliction. And the parable of a hypocrite is that of a firm cedar tree; it does not shake - until it is uprooted all at once." [al-Bukhaaree and Muslim]
