The Book of Praise and Gratitude to Allah
The Obligation of Gratitude
وَعَنْهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: كُلُّ أَمْرٍ ذِي بَالٍ لَا يُبْدَأُ فِيهِ: بِالْحَمْدِ لِلَّهِ فَهُوَ أَقْطَعُ حَدِيث حَسَن، ((رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد وغيره)).
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Any matter of importance which is not begun with Al-hamdu lillah (praise be to Allah) remains defective." [Abu Dawud].
