Allah -azwj would be Saying to a servant from His -azwj servant on the Day of Judgement: “Did you thank so and so?” He would say, ‘But, I thanked You -azwj , O Lord -azwj !” So He -azwj would be Saying: “You did not thank Me -azwj when you did not thank him”. ثُمَّ قَالَ أَشْكَرُكُمْ لِلَّهِ أَشْكَرُكُمْ لِلنَّاسِ . Then he -asws said: ‘The most thankful to Allah -azwj , is the one most thankful you to the people’.
[29] إذا أخذت من أحدكم قذاة فليقل أماط الله عنك ما تكره You should thank those who solve your problems (by saying): “Allah -azwj may move away from you whatever you detest.” [30] Right of Thanking Allah -azwj : الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُعَلَّى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْوَشَّاءِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ قَالَ خَرَجَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ وَ قَدْ ضَاعَتْ دَابَّتُهُ فَقَالَ لَئِنْ رَدَّهَا اللَّهُ عَلَيَّ لَأَشْكُرَنَّ اللَّهَ حَقَّ شُكْرِهِ Al Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Moalla Bin Muhammad, from Al Washa, from Hammad Bin Usman who said, ‘Abu Abdullah -asws went out from the Masjid and he -asws had lost his -asws (riding) animal.
So he -asws said: ‘If Allah -azwj were to Return it to me -asws , I -asws will thank Allah -azwj as it is a right of thanking Him -azwj ’. قَالَ فَمَا لَبِثَ أَنْ أُتِيَ بِهَا فَقَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ قَائِلٌ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ أَ لَيْسَ قُلْتَ لَأَشْكُرَنَّ اللَّهَ حَقَّ شُكْرِهِ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) أَ لَمْ تَسْمَعْنِي قُلْتُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ . He (the narrator) said, ‘So, it wasn’t long before they came with it.
So he -asws said: ‘The Praise is for Allah -azwj ’. So a sayer said to him -asws , ‘May I be sacrificed for you -asws !
Did you -asws not say, ‘I -asws will thank Allah -azwj as it is a right of thanking Him -azwj ’?’ So Abu Abdullah -asws said: ‘Did you not listen to me -asws saying: ‘The Praise is for Allah -azwj ’?’ [31] عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ صَاحِبِ السَّابِرِيِّ فِيمَا أَعْلَمُ أَوْ غَيْرِهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ فِيمَا أَوْحَى اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِلَى مُوسَى ( عليه السلام ) يَا مُوسَى اشْكُرْنِي حَقَّ شُكْرِي فَقَالَ يَا رَبِّ وَ كَيْفَ أَشْكُرُكَ حَقَّ شُكْرِكَ وَ لَيْسَ مِنْ شُكْرٍ أَشْكُرُكَ بِهِ إِلَّا وَ أَنْتَ أَنْعَمْتَ بِهِ عَلَيَّ قَالَ يَا مُوسَى الْآنَ شَكَرْتَنِي حِينَ عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ مِنِّي .
