The importance of giving thanks

It is considered good manners when someone did you a favor to give thanks as a token of appreciation.  Giving thanks is not only an ethics of good character but also an act of worship in Islam. Yes indeed by giving thanks genuinely  , you get rewarded for it by the most merciful, the creator of heavens and earths and all that we see and don’t see ( unseen worlds )  What about giving thanks to the one who give you life , hearing , health and so many blessings that we are unable to count . Give thanks to your creator for all the blessings he bestowed upon us . How many of us are truly grateful to Allah when we reflect on the blessings that He has given us for free!  We didn’t do anything to earn these blessings!  And yet we don’t reflect and we’re not grateful. Allah said in Quran Suratul Mu’minun, 23:78, ‎وَهُوَ الَّذِى أَنْشَأَ لَكُمُ السَّمْعَ وَالاٌّبْصَـرَ وَالاٌّفْئِدَةَ قَلِيلاً مَّا تَشْكُرُونَ It is He Who has created for you hearing, eyes, and hearts (understanding, intellect).
