What are the consequences of not thanking Allah Almighty for His blessings?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

One of the consequences of not thanking Allah the Almighty for His blessings is their removal and disappearance, as indicated by the noble verse: "And [remember] when your Lord proclaimed, 'If you are grateful, I will surely increase you [in favor]; but if you deny, indeed, My punishment is severe.'"

A servant may also be deprived of sustenance due to his sins, as stated in the Hadith: "Indeed, a servant is deprived of sustenance because of a sin he commits." The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, used to seek refuge in Allah from the vanishing of blessings, saying: "O Allah, I seek refuge in You from the vanishing of Your blessing, the changing of Your well-being, the suddenness of Your wrath, and all Your displeasure." Disobeying Allah is among the causes for the removal of blessings.
