Human’s Ungratefulness towards the Creator of the Worlds

Now-a-days, the fasts of the Islamic month of Ramadan are going on. During these days, I am referring the commentaries of Qur’anic verses in English version complied by Shi’ite Ayatollah Sayyid Kamal Faghih Imani & a Group of Muslim Scholars. My today’s post is based on the Verse No. 78 of Sura Al-Mu’minun No.23. It is as “He it is Who produced for you hearing, and eyes, and hearts (minds); (very) little it is what you give thanks.”

My humble intention, here, is to discuss in brief for ungratefulness of human kind towards God. Human has been favored with His uncountable blessings. Here, I am going to proceed into my topic taking into consideration His favors of eyes, ears and mind only to human body as mentioned in above verse. It is the secondary matter that some of the human beings, in exceptional cases, might be lacking these abilities of hearing, seeing and understanding many things with mind. God’s some actions in particular cases are mysterious and beyond our imagination; and, therefore I leave aside the discussion for the same here to hold on my topic.
