Expressing Gratitude to Allah

SUMMARY: This hadith is about expressing gratitude to Allah for providing us with sustenance and blessings.

Narrated Abu Umama: Whenever the Prophet finished his meals (or when his dining sheet was taken away), he used to say".Praise be to Allah Who has satisfied our needs and quenched our thirst. Your favor cannot by compensated or denied". Once he said, upraise be to You, O our Lord! Your favor cannot be compensated, nor can be left, nor can be dispensed with, O our Lord!"
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ ثَوْرِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَعْدَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ كَانَ إِذَا فَرَغَ مِنْ طَعَامِهِ ـ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً إِذَا رَفَعَ مَائِدَتَهُ ـ قَالَ ‏ "‏ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي كَفَانَا وَأَرْوَانَا، غَيْرَ مَكْفِيٍّ، وَلاَ مَكْفُورٍ ـ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّنَا، غَيْرَ مَكْفِيٍّ، وَلاَ مُوَدَّعٍ ـ وَلاَ مُسْتَغْنًى، رَبَّنَا

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught us the importance of expressing gratitude to Allah for all the blessings He has bestowed upon us. Whenever he finished his meals, he would say a prayer of thanksgiving, praising Allah and acknowledging His favor that cannot be denied or compensated. He also taught us that we should not take these blessings for granted, as they are a gift from our Lord that should be appreciated and thanked for. We should remember that without these blessings, we would not have been able to survive or thrive in this world. Therefore, it is important to always express our gratitude towards Allah by saying prayers of thanksgiving whenever we receive any kind of blessing from Him.

In addition, this hadith also teaches us the importance of humility and recognizing our dependence on God's mercy and grace in order to live a successful life here on earth. We must never forget that everything we have comes from Him alone; therefore it is essential that we show appreciation for His gifts by thanking Him regularly through prayerful supplications and expressions of gratitude.
