Is it correct to say: "Allah wants to give you a gift" when rewarding someone for an act of obedience or an accomplishment?
There is no objection to benefiting from family and friends; for every benefit a servant receives from them is a gift from Allah Almighty. He is the Creator of His servants and their actions, and no one can benefit another except by His permission and aid, as Allah Almighty says: "While Allah created you and that which you do," and as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "And know that if the entire nation were to gather to benefit you, they would not benefit you except with something Allah has already written for you."
