Be Grateful - Greatest Way To Attract Happiness


Be grateful to God and be grateful to all His children. God’s blessings are countless. Just think of our sense of sight, hearing, touch, smell. Think about our health, wealth, family, kids, parents and friends. To show true gratitude to God is to always remember Him.

Remembering Him means that He is a part of our thoughts, words, and deeds.

 
There is a beautiful story, that I always think of when it comes to God blessings.


“Prophet Muhammad once told the story of a worshipper who lived in isolation for 1000 years, just worshipping Allah. When this man died, Allah ordered the angels to take him to Heaven by the Mercy of Allah. The man disagreed, stating that he should go to Heaven as a result of his own work, his 1000 years of worship. Allah then ordered His angels to settle the man’s account. The angels put the worshipper’s work on one scale of the balance and on the other they started by putting the blessing of eyesight. The scale carrying only the eyesight blessing was much heavier. The man then shouted, ‘By your mercy, O Allah, by your mercy!’ Allah replied, ‘Take my servant to Heaven by my mercy.’”
