12 REASONS FOR SHUKR (THANKFULNESS) TO THE CREATOR

1. WE CAN NEVER COUNT GOD'S BLESSINGS:

Be ever grateful to Allah(God) for everything that you possess including your wealth, health, status, intellectual abilities and life. Allah says:

"Is, then, He Who creates comparable to any that cannot create? Will you not, then, take heed? For should you try to count Allah's blessings, you could never compute them" (An-Nahl 16:17-19).


2. SHAYTAN'S PRIMARY MISSION IS TO MAKE HUMAN BEINGS UNGRATEFUL:

From the very beginning of the human being's creation, the issue of gratefulness and thankfulness to Allah has been debated. After refusing to bow to Adam, Satan said: "Then I will certainly come to them from before them and from behind them, and from the right-hand side and from the left-hand side, and You (Allah) shall not find most of them thankful." (Al-Araf 7:17)


3- THE OPPOSITE OF SHUKR (GRATITUDE) IS KUFR (DISBELIEF):

In many places in the Quran, Allah compares the terms shukr and kufr. "Then remember Me; I will remember you. Be grateful to Me, and do not reject Me" (Al-Baqarah 2:152).


Iman (belief) implies shukr or gratefulness as opposed to kufr or ungratefulness. A kafiror disbeliever is ungrateful to the Being Who has given him everything, whereas a Believer is one who is ever thankful for all that Allah has given him.


4- WE THANK ALLAH FOR OUR OWN BENEFIT:

If you are ungrateful, Allah is unaffected. If you become grateful, then you have taken the first step towards becoming a true Believer. It is for this reason that the Prophet exhorted us to "Love Allah as we benefit from His grace" (Tirmidhi).


Allah reminds us: " And whoever is grateful, he is only grateful for the benefit of his own self" (Luqman 31:12). "For surely if it was not for the grace of God on you and His mercy, you would have been among the losers" (Al-Baqarah 2:64). Read more
