3805. It was narrated from Anas that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Allāh does not bestow a blessing upon any slave and he says: 'Al-hamdu Lillāh' (praise is to Allāh), except that what he gives (the praise) is better than what he received (the blessing).” (Hasan)

3805 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْخَلَّالُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ شَبِيبِ بْنِ بِشْرٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " مَا أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَى عَبْدٍ نِعْمَةً فَقَالَ: الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ، إِلَّا كَانَ الَّذِي أَعْطَى أَفْضَلَ مِمَّا أَخَذَ " بَابُ فَضْلِ التَّسْبِيحِ

Commentary

Generally, a person gives importance to the worldly bounties of Allāh, while the blessing of being grateful to Allāh for these bounties—and due to this gratefulness—the blessings that are granted in the Hereafter are greater and more precious than these worldly blessings. So, thanking Allāh immediately after getting any blessing is better and more beneficial for the person.
