The Importance of Gratitude

SUMMARY: It is important to be thankful for any donations or gifts received, and not to conceal them.

Narrated Jabir ibn Abdullah: The Prophet said: If someone is donated something, and he mentions it, he thanks for it, and if he conceals it, he is ungrateful for it.
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْجَرَّاحِ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ مَنْ أَبْلَى بَلاَءً فَذَكَرَهُ فَقَدْ شَكَرَهُ وَإِنْ كَتَمَهُ فَقَدْ كَفَرَهُ
