Why do hardships strike the righteous?

Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh. Recently, my family faced a scam that left us with a heavy financial blow. We're still in shock, our hearts are aching, and it's hard to make sense of it. We've always tried to live upright lives, steer clear of harming anyone, and we lean on Allah for everything. We pray, make dua constantly, and strive to be decent. So honestly, this ordeal has us really puzzled. I do believe that all matters are from Allah’s qadr, and every trial holds some deep wisdom. But emotionally, I can't stop wondering: why does it feel like only good people get hit with such troubles? How do you deal with a test like this from an Islamic viewpoint? Any Quran ayahs, hadiths, or personal stories that brought you comfort after a big loss? Please remember my family in your duas. Jazakum Allahu Khair.

Allah tests those He loves. Look at the story of Ayyub (AS). He lost everything but stayed grateful. Your reward will be huge in sha Allah.

I read that trials are like a medicine; bitter now, healing later. Make dua in sujood and pour your heart out. Allah's relief is near.
