دَورُ الشُّكرِ فِي الزِّيادَةِ The Role of Thankfulness in the Increase (of Bounties)

7ـ رسولُ اللهِ‏ِ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ): ما فَتَحَ اللّه‏ُ على عَبدٍ بابَ شُكرٍ فَخَزَنَ عنهُ بابَ الزِّيادَةِ .

7– The Prophet (SAWA) said, ‘Allah does not open the door of thanks for His servant and keep the door of increase shut.’[al-Kafi, v. 2, p. 94, no. 2]
 

8ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): ما أنعَمَ اللّه‏ُ على عَبدٍ نِعمَةً فَشَكَرَها بِقَلبِهِ ، إلّا استَوجَبَ المَزِيدَ فيها قَبلَ أن يُظهِرَ شُكرَها عَلى لِسانِهِ.

8– Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘When Allah bestows a bounty upon a servant, no sooner does the latter feel thankful for it in his heart than he becomes deserving of increase therein before the expression of thanks has even reached his tongue.’[Amali al-Tusi, p. 580, no. 1197]
