remember blessings so we stay grateful

Allah said: "Remember My blessing that I gave you." (Al-Baqarah: 40, 47, 122)

Also: "And remember Allah’s favor upon you." (Al-Baqarah: 231)

And: "O Isa (Jesus) son of Maryam, remember My favor to you and to your mother." (Al-Maa’idah: 110)

Reminder: remembering the blessings we received is one of the best ways to build gratitude.

That gratitude should show up in our actions, our words, and how we carry ourselves.

(from Syajaratul Ma‘arif, Syaikh al-‘Izz bin Abdus Salam)
