The ruling on saying: "I thank you, so-and-so"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Is it permissible for a person to say to another, "I thank you, so-and-so, for your work"?

Answer:
"I thank you" means "I am grateful to you for what you did." This is better than saying "I praise you," because gratitude is more specific than praise.
