Question:
May Allah reward you with good, O Shaykh. In the noble verse[Ad-Duhaa 93:11], if a person, O Shaykh, is righteous and has the ability to live in comfort and happiness, does this noble verse apply to him? And what is the meaning of “And as for the favor of your Lord, then speak of it”?
Answer:
Yes, speaking of Allah’s favor is one of the meanings of giving thanks for it, because giving thanks for a favor consists of three pillars: speaking of it outwardly, acknowledging it inwardly, and attributing it to Allah (Mighty and Majestic), its bestower and its provider. These are the pillars of gratitude. Yes.
