ABOUT THE BOOK
Imam Ghazali states, "Shukr occupies a very lofty status". It surpasses the quality of Zuhd, Sabr, and all other qualities which have been mentioned already, since none of them are objects themselves. They are all attained for some other purpose. The object of sabr is so that it must function as a whip and drive its possessor to the praiseworthy place desired.
Zhud is to assist a person to turn away from all those things which divert one away from Allah. However Shukr is an object in itself. For this reason, it will not terminate in Jannah. There will be no need for repentance, fear, sabr and zuhd in Jannah. However Shukr will be continuously uttered by the inhabitants of Jannah.
Keeping in view the lofty status of Shukr and our weakness in this quality, the following book has been prepared to bring alive this great command of Allah and a great sunnah in the life of Rasulullah.
