O Allah, make my spouse among those who are grateful for Your blessings, and make them content with what You have decreed for them. Make them acknowledge Your favor, and do not make them forgetful of Your remembrance.

How to Read

Virtues & Benefits
Cultivating gratitude in a spouse strengthens the marital bond by fostering appreciation for each other and for Allah's favors. It shifts the focus from shortcomings to blessings, reducing conflict and increasing contentment. A grateful spouse is more likely to acknowledge and value their partner's efforts, contributing to a happier and more stable relationship. The Quran emphasizes gratitude: "So remember Me; I will remember you. And be grateful to Me, and do not deny Me" (Al-Baqarah 2:152). Allah also mentions the worldly and hereafter benefits of appreciating His provisions: "And Allah has made for you from yourselves mates and has made for you from your mates sons and grandsons and has provided for you of the good things - then in falsehood do they believe and in the favor of Allah they disbelieve?" (An-Nahl 16:72).
