The Pillars of Gratitude
Shaykh ʿUbayd al-Jābirī (حفظه
الله) said:
“The pillars of
gratitude—those which if a person combines together he becomes truly grateful
to Allāh—are three:
a)
Affirmation of the favour inwardly, with certainty that it is from Allāh,
that if He wills, He can remove it or make it remain.
b) Informing about the favour openly, when there
is a need to do that.
c) Making use of this favour in what pleases the
one who bestowed it, which is Allāh.
Al-Fawāʾid al-Majmūʿah (p. 258).
