Ramadan Kareem

Have you said thank you to Allah today? Do you know that showing gratitude for your blessings is even a blessing on its own? Or that gratitude can get your sins forgiven?

If we were to count our blessings from the time were born up until this moment, we would be unable to count it.

“…And If you would count the blessings of Allah you would not be able to count them…” [Surah Ibrahim 14:34]

As humans we have a long list of things we complain about daily, that we often forget to be thankful for the positive things in our life.

“Therefore remember Me (by praying, glorifying), I will remember you, and be grateful to Me (for My countless Favors on you) and never be ungrateful to Me.” [Surah al-Baqarah 2: 152]

Though things might not be going as planned, remember that Allah shall neither forsake you nor leave you. Being thankful for one blessing attracts even more blessings from Allah.
