(No. 349) ʿAbd Allāh narrated to us—my father informed me; Hāshim informed us; Ṣāliḥ informed us, from Abū ʿImrān al-Jawnī, from Abū al-Jald, who said:
Moses, peace be upon him, said: “My Lord, how can I thank You, when the least of the blessings You have bestowed upon me is such that all my deeds together could never repay it?”
Thereupon Allah revealed to him: “O Moses, it is precisely now that you have thanked Me.”
٣٤٩ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا أبِي، أَخْبَرَنَا هَاشِمٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا صَالِحٌ، عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي الْجَلْدِ قَالَ: " قَالَ مُوسَى: إِلَهِي، كَيْفَ أَشْكُرُكَ وَأَصْغَرُ نِعْمَةٍ وَضَعْتَهَا عِنْدِي مِنْ نِعَمِكَ لَا يُجَازِي بِهَا عَمَلِي كُلُّهُ؟ قَالَ: فَأَوْحَى اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يَا مُوسَى، الْآنَ شَكَرْتَنِي "
