Appreciating Allah's Blessings

SUMMARY: This hadith is about Prophet Ayyub (AS) and how he responded to Allah's blessings.

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet said, "While Ayyub the Prophet was taking a bath, naked, a large number of gold locusts fell on him. He tried to collect them in a piece of cloth, when he heard his Rabb (Allah) calling him: 'O Ayyub ! Have I not sufficed you to care for what you see (the worldly possessions)?' Ayyub said: 'Indeed by Your Power, but I can never do away with Your Blessings"'. Al- Bukhari.
وعن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه ، عن النبي قال‏:‏ “بينما أيوب عليه السلام يغتسل عريانا، فخر عليه جراد من ذهب، فجعل أيوب يحثي فى ثوبه فناداه ربه عز وجل يا أيوب ألم أكن أغنيتك عما ترى‏؟‏‏!‏ قال‏:‏بلى وعزتك، ولكن لا غنى بى عن بركتك، ‏(‏‏(‏رواه البخاري‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
