45 - أنا أَبُو سَعْدٍ الْمَالِينِيُّ، نا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْحَافِظُ، نا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الْبَاغِنْدِيُّ وَالْمَحَامِلِيُّ، قَالَا: نا أَبُو يَحْيَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ غَالِبٍ الْعَطَّارُ، نا يُونُسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، نا أَبُو وَكِيعٍ، عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ، أَنَّهُ خَطَبَ فَذَكَرَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: «التَّحَدُّثُ بِنِعَمِ اللَّهِ شُكْرٌ، وَتَرْكَهَا كُفْرٌ»
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Nu'man bin Bashir (may Allah be pleased with both of them) that he delivered a sermon and stated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Mentioning the blessings of Allah is gratitude, and not mentioning them is ingratitude."
Brief Explanation
Explanation— This hadith is an explanation of Allah Ta'ala's statement: “And proclaim the blessing of your Lord.” (1) That is, in order to express gratitude, mention your Lord’s blessing, make it known, because proclaiming a blessing is itself an act of gratitude. And while mentioning the benefit of expressing gratitude, Allah Ta'ala has said: “Indeed, if you are grateful, I will surely, surely increase you; and if you are ungrateful, then surely My punishment is very severe.” (1)
