Question:
Is this phrase correct? Praise be to Allah, Who is not praised for any creation other than Him.
Answer:
Allah is praised for everything, Glorified and Exalted is He, because He does not do anything in vain, and He does not do anything except for a wise purpose. So He is the One to be praised in every state, without doubt. Yes, but if it were said, “Praise be to Allah, the One to be praised in every state,” that would be better than “praised for something bad.” Rather, it should be said, “Praise be to Allah, the One to be praised in every state.” Yes.
