Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the criterion for the prostration of gratitude? Does one prostrate or give thanks for every good thing that happens to him, such as passing an exam, graduating, and the like?
Answer:
It is obligatory, but prostration is more expressive of gratitude. As for giving thanks, it is obligatory; one thanks Allah with his tongue, his heart, and his actions.
