Summary
Gratitude is expressed through the tongue, heart and limbs: praising Allah, acknowledging His blessings and using those blessings to obey Him. The fatwa gives three main ways: praising Allah and mentioning His favours, performing acts of worship such as prayer and fasting as a sign of thanks, and rising for night prayer as the Prophet SAW did. It also encourages reciting the supplication of Prophet Sulaiman AS asking to be inspired to remain grateful.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Hendaklah memuji Allah SWT di atas segala nikmat yang telah dikurniakan.
