I act kindly towards you by offering My bounties and you only increase your grudge against me by your ingratitude and sins; My Mercy and Compassion is streaming upon you and your evil and vice is only ascending back to Me. A great angel watches over you every day and night and keeps a record of your wrong doings and brings them to me [everyday]. Oh Mankind! If you were to hear your own actions from another\u2019s tongue and you had not known who\u2019s the owner of those actions, then you would have hated that person with all your heart for doing all those sins\u2026 \u201d<a href=\"#_ftn1\" name=\"_ftnref1\">[1]<\/a><\/p><p>And yet Allah\u00a0(SWT)\u00a0does not hate or turn against anyone; whatever mercy and bounty He has given us is simply unlimited and out of pure benevolence. The minimum\u00a0<strong>fairness<\/strong>\u00a0is that in response to so much compassion we do our best to consume these bounties in the path He would be\u00a0<strong>satisfied<\/strong>\u00a0and perform what He has\u00a0<strong>requested<\/strong>\u00a0from us. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p><p>(Selection take from \u201cthe life of Imam Hadi (PBUH)\u201d by Baqir Sharif Qurashi)<\/p><p>Tags: <a href=\"https:\/\/roshd.com\/en\/tag\/imam-ali-bin-muhammad-al-hadi\/\" class=\"tag-link\">Imam Ali bin Muhammad al-Hadi<\/a><\/p><hr \/><h1><strong>Footnote<\/strong>:<\/h1><p><a href=\"#_ftnref1\" name=\"_ftn1\">[1]<\/a> Amali Sheikh Saduq, pg. 278, narration 532<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>**When someone helps us, basic fairness demands gratitude\u2014yet humans often fail to show this fairness toward Allah.
