In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?

Be thankful when you don't know something
It gives you the opportunity to learn

Be thankful for the difficult times
During those times you grow

Be thankful for your limitations
They give you opportunities for improvement

Be thankful for each new challenge
It builds your strength and character

Be thankful for your mistakes
They will teach you valuable lessons

Be thankful when you're tired and weary
Because it means you've made a difference

It is easy to be thankful for the good things
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are also thankful for the setbacks

Gratitude can turn a negative into a positive
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles and they can become your blessings

 

بَلِ اللَّهَ فَاعْبُدْ وَكُن مِّنْ الشَّاكِرِينَ

Nay, but worship Allah, and be of those who give thanks. (39:66)
