Law of Allah about nations’ rise and fall

It is the law of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ that after granting a nation or group of people some blessings, He does not change the blessing into torment unless that nation becomes unworthy of the blessing due to their evil deeds. This is the fixed law for the rise and fall of the past and present nations, that blessings increase if thanks are given for those blessings and if they are used appropriately, but if thanks are not given, punishment is imposed.

Remember, this law of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ is not only for non-Muslims, but if Muslims also act like them, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ takes His blessings back from them and they also fall into disgrace as those who are well aware of Muslims’ rise and fall know that as long as Muslims used Allah’s blessings in the correct manner, they prospered and rose to power and great ‘superpowers’ of the world remained under their rule and non-Muslims remained fully aware just by listening to a Muslim’s name. Since Muslims stopped giving thanks for His blessings and used them improperly, they have started losing their strength and absolute rule over non-Muslims.

جو کچھ بھی ہیں سب اپنے ہی ہاتھوں کے ہیں کرتُوت

شکوہ ہے زمانے کا نہ قسمت کا گلہ ہے

دیکھے ہیں یہ دن اپنی ہی غفلت کی بدولت

سچ ہے کہ بُرے کام کا انجام بُرا ہے

صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب       صَلَّى اللّٰهُ تَعَالٰى عَلٰى مُحَمَّد

How to express thanks for blessings?

If we want to express our joy, we should follow the ways through which the pleasure of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ can be obtained. For example:
