Alhamdulilah For Everything

How often we thank our Creator for all the blessing bestowed upon us? How much we are thankful for all the blessing surrounded us? Are we grateful for having a glass full of cold water to quench our thirst? We take every blessing upon our part but forget to say ALHAMDULILAH. We overlook it and thinking it won't be matter but it matters a lot. ALHAMDULILAH comprises of two words : Alhamdu   Lilah ; All praise to Allah. With most of the bad and melancholy around we are almost forgetting to show gratitude which is supposed to be basic component of way of life. Team Ayeina came up with absolutely brilliant creative idea to keep a check on the things you are grateful for. They introduce mini gratitude journal 'Alhmdulilah for Series' Its quite handy and small in size. I am grateful and glad they sent me this cute mini journal for review.
