In the Quran

وَلَقَدْ ءَاتَيْنَا لُقْمَٰنَ ٱلْحِكْمَةَ أَنِ ٱشْكُرْ لِلَّهِ ۚ وَمَن يَشْكُرْ فَإِنَّمَا يَشْكُرُ لِنَفْسِهِۦ ۖ وَمَن كَفَرَ فَإِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَنِىٌّ حَمِيدٌۭ

اور ہم نے لقمان کو دانائی بخشی۔ کہ خدا کا شکر کرو۔ اور جو شخص شکر کرتا ہے تو اپنے ہی فائدے کے لئے شکر کرتا ہے۔ اور جو ناشکری کرتا ہے تو خدا بھی بےپروا اور سزاوار حمد (وثنا) ہے

And verily We gave Luqman wisdom, saying: Give thanks unto Allah; and whosoever giveth thanks, he giveth thanks for (the good of) his soul. And whosoever refuseth - Lo! Allah is Absolute, Owner of Praise.
