Slam all,
As we know that Allah almighty loves us more than 70 mothers & He always takes the exam from those whom He love a lot but when people are in suffering,they start cursing & say what’s wrong we have done that we have hardships?so my question is that if Allah’s love is concerning to exam then why people feels that every mishappening is due to their bad deeds?

For the above (in red) sentence, could u please provide the reference. Thanx 
Allah SWT! love His creatures and said in Qur’an**: "Say, [O Muhammad], “If you should love Allah , then follow me, [so] Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.” **

Re: A QUESTION???
At the moment I have no source to prove what I say, but would share what I personally feel and also heard from the scholars.
If you want to check whether a person is pious enough to be going through a test from Allah (Swt) or is he suffering from Allah's punishment, because of his bad deeds. There is a simple way to find out.
The test of Allah (swt) would make him thankful and patient in troubled times, because when Allah (swt) tests a person, HE also blesses the man with the strength and patience to be able to pass the test
BUT
If it were a punishment from Allah (swt) because of his sins, it would be evident from his thankless behaviour towards Allah (swt), while going through the pain
I might be totally wrong. In that case please correct me. Allah (swt) knows BEST!
p.s. It is not 70 times love of a mother. In Arabic 70 is usually used as an idiom to mention something that is countless/infinite.

Peace Shazia Arif
This is an often misunderstood scenario but there is a very simply formula towards understanding this. Some of what has been given above.
The Straight Path
The sirat al mustaqeem is the path not going straight forward, but straight upwards. It is the shortest path from down to up, consider the peak of a mountain the straightest path is the sharpest angle. This is hardest to walk up. Going round the mountain in circles is not the straight path but is easier to walk along, but it also take longer.
The Muslim views the "struggle" as the reward, however the weaker/uninclined people prefer to live in ease. They think that to combat ones own desires and to live in luxury is the epitome of "love", because our mothers protect us from harm and want only ease for us. If a mother prepares her daughter to be able to cope in hard situations then when her daughter gets married she will be prepared and hence her heart is protected. However, if a mother does everything for her daughter and teaches her nothing, then later the hardship will start. Such is this life. If we prepare ourselves in the "hardships" of this life, then we can be more prepared for the "afterlife".
The Sahabah were happy during hardship, because in the Qur'an it says following every hardship are two 'reliefs' - in the 30th Juz.
It also says in the Qur'an that those who wish to be close to Allah (SWT) do they expect not to be tested? It is also a filtering process. It is good enough to say in comfort that "I love Allah (SWT)", but the proof is when we are tested that we still say "AllahuAkbar".
Remember:
The struggle is sweeter than the reward
To be a slave of desire is to be ignorant of one’s power
Suffering
There are 3 angles to suffering all of which can be found in the Qur'an.
1) Those who die with injustice will be given their justice in the Hereafter.
2) Those who make the wrong decisions cause problems for themselves.
3) Those who are struggling are being tested.
The wrong decisions are often those ones when we think that there is benefit in something when it is clearly told otherwise - such as selling alcohol.
If we look at ourselves and still we are finding it hard, we should be patient - this means that we need to smile in the face of agony. Knowing that this affliction is from Allah (SWT) because He loves us, but we can only arrive at this conclusion if we know that we are pure of haram. If we don't then we should:
- Pray that Allah (SWT) shows us what we are doing wrong
- Pray that He gives us patience to last the trial and ultimately for Him to remove that trial from us. Since, if we are never in hardship then how will we ever ask for help? When we ask for help from Him - He loves this. Asking for help from Allah (SWT) is form of worship also. Giving us the opportunity to ask for help, by making us struggle means we have the doors of forgiveness opened for us.
In times of ease we should be thankful and in times of hardship we should be patient ... this is the formula for most Muslims. Some of the great awliyya say "in times of hardship we should be thankful" - because Allah (SWT) tests and hence remembers his slave. Reaching this level is not necessary. At least we should be patient to show that we truly do love Him.
"Can I embrace hardship in this world as though I am eating candy, because the hardship of that world would surely make it seem that way"

thanx every 1.i was not expactin such a detailed answer.
Re: A QUESTION???
ive in the past thought of hardship as 'the way of the believers.' i still do, and if you can live through hardships steadfast in your belief then that is the pinnacle of righteousness
but there is another type of hardship for the believers- the modern world. and if one can stick to the deen in this era, that does rank highly
obviously these are my opinions only
