The second chapter comprises nineteen thematic sections that gather and evaluate narrations addressing various dimensions of tribulation, including trials being proportional to one's faith, the expiation of sins through hardship, the diversity of trials affecting oneself, family, or wealth, and the prescription of seeking refuge from severe affliction . In authenticating these traditions, he traces their transmission paths and variants through major classical collections, including the Sunan of al-Tirmidhi, the Sunan of Ibn Majah, and the Musnad of Ahmad ibn Hanbal .
