Abstract

Quran has used the term naymat (blessings) in a wide range of meaning, all items from necessities to luxuries, any type of domination, increase in knowledge and wealth are included in it. According to Quran all blessings are always from God but there are certain actions due to them any blessing which is given to anyone may be reduced or ultimately snatched out by God. These actions are highlighted in Quran and termed as ingratitude. Reduction in the blessing depends upon the level of these actions. Hence these actions formed a criteria for any one (person/nation) to check himself that why he/she is losing any blessing of God.
