1955. Abū Sa'eed narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Whoever is not grateful to the people, he is not grateful to Allāh." (Ṣaḥīḥ) There are narrations on this topic from Abū Hurairah, Al-Ash'ath bin Qais, and An-Nu'mān bin Bashīr. [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ.
١٩٥٥ - حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى (ح) وَحَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ وَكِيعٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرُّوَاسِيُّ ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى ، عَنْ عَطِيَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ لَمْ يَشْكُرِ» النَّاسَ لَمْ يَشْكُرِ اللهَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَالْأَشْعَثِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، وَالنُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ.

How can a man, whose very nature is built upon thanklessness and ingratitude, be grateful to Allāh? In other words, whoever is incapable of being grateful to the people, will never be really grateful to Allāh. Allāh will not, therefore, accept the thankfulness or gratitude of such a thankless person.
