Gratitude

“O my friend, on the path of impotence one must possess four qualities before Allah: absolute impotence, absolute poverty, absolute ardor, and absolute gratitude.”

اَللّٰهُمَّ اجْعَلْنَا مِنَ الشَّاكِرٖينَ بِرَحْمَتِكَ يَا اَرْحَمَ الرَّاحِمٖينَO Allah, make us among the grateful by Your mercy, O Most Merciful of the merciful.

سُبْحَانَكَ لَا عِلْمَ لَنَٓا اِلَّا مَا عَلَّمْتَنَٓا اِنَّكَ اَنْتَ الْعَلٖيمُ الْحَكٖيمُGlory be to You. We have no knowledge except what You have taught us. Indeed, You are the All-Knowing, the All-Wise. – The Koran 2:32

اَللّٰهُمَّ صَلِّ وَ سَلِّمْ عَلٰى سَيِّدِنَا مُحَمَّدٍ سَيِّدِ الشَّاكِرٖينَ وَ الْحَامِدٖينَ وَ عَلٰى اٰلِهٖ وَ صَحْبِهٖ اَجْمَعٖينَ اٰمٖينَO Allah, send Your blessings and peace upon our master Muhammad, the leader of the grateful and the praising, and upon all his family and companions. Āmīn.

وَ اٰخِرُ دَعْوٰيهُمْ اَنِ الْحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمٖينَTheir final supplication will be: ‘All praise belongs to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds.’ – The Quran 10:10
