A simple way of thanking God

SHAFAQNA – It is narrated that one day Imam Sadeq (AS) tied an animal to a pole near the door of the Mosque and when he returned could not see it. Imam Sadeq (AS) said: If God returns it to me I will thank God the way it is appropriate. After a short while the animal was brought to Imam Sadeq (AS) and he said: (Alhamdulellah) Praise be to Allah (SWT). Someone asked: Have you not said that you would thank God the appropriate way? Imam Sadeq (AS) replied: Have you not heard? I said: Praise be to Allah (SWT) [1].
