अदा-ए-शुक्र-ए-नेमत हो ख़ुदा की बंदगी करना ख़िलाफ़-ए-मर्ज़ी-ए-मोहसिन निशान ना-सिपासी का
— Shah Turab Ali Qalandar
Meaning

The true way of expressing gratitude for God's blessings is to worship Him, while acting against the will of one's benefactor is a sign of ungratefulness.

Explanation

The poet gently redefines true devotion, reminding us that worship is fundamentally our heart's natural way of thanking God for the countless gifts of life. When a benefactor showers us with unconditional grace, deliberately going against their will is the clearest sign of ingratitude. True prayer, then, isn't just performing rituals, but living in loving harmony with the Divine's purpose.
