Importance of gratitude in Islam

Maulana, agla sawal Hyderabad se hai, Miss Salma ka. Unhon ne aapse poocha hai: "What is the importance of shukr in Islam?" shukr to sab kuch hai Islam mein. Alhamdulillah Rabb-ul-Alameen jo hai, hum shukr hi to hain. sab se bari cheez Islam mein shukr hai. Aur aaj ke musalmanon mein shukr bilkul ghayab hai. Kam az kam mujhe nahi maloom koi insan jo sahi ma'ano mein shukr karne wala ho. shukr karte hain kis par log? Apne bete, beti par, apne ghar par, apne job par, apni dukaan par, business par. Allah ka shukr kaun karta hai?

kam az kam mein woh insan aaj tak nahi mila hoon is insan se jo haqeeqi ma'ano mein Allah ka shukr karne wala ho. aksar mera yeh tajruba hota hai, mein logon se poochta hoon koi item ko le kar ke ke bataein ke yeh is item par aap ne Allah ka shukr kiya? kyunki yeh misaal to mein technology jo hai, technology kya hai? Is nature mein maujood thi, Allah ne in nature mein rakh diya tha, potentially. Is ko insan ne daryaft kiya. Ab log khoob istemal kar rahe hain. Masalan ghari hai, radio hai, telephone hai, mobile hai, camera hai.

yeh sara Allah ka atiya to tha. Lekin sab log kya samajhte hain ke sabaq sector mein gaye, wahan se khareed liya, bas mil gaya hum ko. mujhe to koi nahi mila jo is par shukr karta ho sahi ma'ano mein. Ke kitni bari bari nemmatein Allah ne rakh di thi zameen mein, is ko discover kar ke hum istemal kar rahe hain. Koi bhi nahi. Bas samajhte hain ke jeeb mein paisa tha, hum ja ke khareed liya. koi shukr nahi, Alhamdulillah, Subhan Allah karte hain jo log. Woh to ek culture hai, bas. Haqeeqi ma'ano mein dil se aur aur daryaft ke darje mein shukr karne wala kam az kam mujhe to nahi milta.

agar koi hai to mein us se mulaqat karna chahta hoon. oon. Is ka naam mujhe bataiye, mein us ko miloon ga ja kar ke. Jahan bhi jahan bhi rehta hoon, wahan jaon ga. Agar haqeeqi ma'ano mein koi woh shukr jo matloob hai, bara shukr, yaani shukr ka samandar jis ke dil mein aa gaya ho, shukr chashme jari ho gaye jis ke dil mein, woh shukr, yaani shukr ka ek ek ek ek kainaati infijar jis ke dil mein aa gaya ho, yaani shukr ka ek ek is ke mind ko is ne jagah diya ho, aisa insan, is ki zindagi shukr mein dhal gayi ho, ek ek ek explosion ke roop mein aata hai shukr. Agar sacha shukr aata hai kisi ke andar, woh hai hi nahi bilkul. Ulama mein bhi nahi hai, ghair ulama mein bhi nahi hai.

to sab se bari cheez hai shukr, jis ko shaitan ne logon se cheen liya, cheen rakha hai. hamara mission jo hai, yahi mission hai, ek lafz mein. Hum log chahte hain ke shukr shukr karne wale banen. Woh shukr ayega to dawat ayegi, shukr ayega to Islam ke sare a'amal mein jaan aa jayegi.
