DO NOT SHOW INGRATITUDE TO BLESSINGS

“Wa idhā an‘amnā ‘alā l-insāni a‘raḍa wa na’ā bi jānibihi, wa idhā massahu sh-sharru kāna ya’ūsā” (Qur’ān 17:83). Allah ‘azza wa jalla in the Quran says, “And when We bless man, he turns away, and withdraws aside; but when evil visits him, he is in despair.” This is the nature of people; this is the nature of people’s ego (nafs).
