People think that tests only come in the form of hardship, Allah also tests us with status.
...We raise in rank whoever We will... [Quran 6 : 83]
...and He raised some of you above others in rank, in order to Test you in accordance with what He has given you... (Qur’an 6 : 165)
...We have raised some of them in rank so that some would hire others for service...
[Quran 43 : 32]
see how We have exalted some above others [in the present life]. Yet the Hereafter shall be greater in degrees of rank and greater in excellence.
[Quran 17 : 21]
Be happy with what Allah gave you, means to be grateful for the blessings that Allah has given you and to find happiness in them.
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Wealth is not in having many possessions, but rather (true) wealth is feeling sufficiency in the soul."
[Sahih al-Bukhari 6446]
And whatever of blessings and good things you have, it is from Allâh....., (Quran 16 :53)
They know Allah’s blessings but fail to recognise them, most of them are ungrateful. (Quran 16 :83)
If hard times touch man, he calls on Us. Then, when We favor him with a Our blessing, he says, "I have only been given this only because of my knowledge." In fact, it is only a test, though most of them do not know. (Qur’an 39 : 49)
