Imam Baqir (a.s) said that God the Almighty told Moses the son of Imran: “O' Moses! Give thanks that are due to being thankful to Me.' Moses asked “How can I give thanks that are due to being thankful to You when the blessings are yours, and being thankful for them is another blessing from You, too.” God the Almighty said: “Just realizing that being thankful for My blessings is in itself a blessing, is the right of being thankful to Me.”
عن الباقر (عليه السلام) قال
قال الله عز وجل لموسى بن عمران (عليه السلام): يا موسى، اشكرني حق شكري، قال: يا رب كيف أشكرك حق شكرك والنعمة منك والشكر عليها نعمة منك؟ فقال الله تبارك وتعالى: إذا عرفت أن ذلك مني فقد شكرتني حق شكري.
