He does not need thanks..


Abdullah ibn Mushabbib al-Qahtāni

Our Lord, Exalted be He, does not need our gratitude. Indeed, our thankf ulness does not benefit Him  at all, nor does ingratitude harm Him in any way. Nonetheless, He is Generous as He does not hasten  to inflict punishment upon those who deserve it.

{...And whoever is ungrateful, then my Lord is Self - Sufficient, Generous.}

[Surat an - Naml: 40]

Out of His perfect self-sufficiency and generosity, He created His servants to worship Him and undertakes to provide for all of them, humans and jinn, believers and disbelievers.

{I have not created the jinn and mankind except to worship Me.I seek no provision from them, nor do I want them to feed Me.Indeed, it is Allah Who is the All-Provider, Lord of Power, the Strong.}

[Surat adh-Dhāriyāt: 56-58]
