Religious texts clearly emphasize gratitude and mention its connection with the increase in blessings. However, due to the lack of tangible and immediate observation of an increase in blessings in some cases, doubts may arise regarding the existence of a connection between gratitude and the increase in blessings. While this connection is especially emphasized in the Qur’anic verses and the sayings of the Infallible (peace be upon them), and considering the truth of divine promises, the increase in blessings following gratitude will indeed be realized. Therefore, it is necessary to explain the ontological relationship between the Islamic model of gratitude and the increase in blessings, and to answer the question of how gratitude can lead to the increase in blessings. The goal of this research is to analyze and explain the ontological connection to clarify various dimensions of the issue and the role of different causes and factors in the universe in increasing blessings, thus creating a strong motivation for individuals to practice the Islamic model of gratitude. The author of this research, for the first time, approaches the analysis of the relationship between gratitude and the increase in blessings from an ontological perspective. This research is a theoretical, problem-centered study. The required information has been collected through library-based studies. Rational, philosophical, and traditional analytical methods, with an ontological approach, have been used to analyze and explain different aspects of the topic. The findings of the research show that an ontological connection exists between the Islamic model of gratitude and the increase in blessings, which is causally facilitated by various beings in the universe. The effect of gratitude on the increase in blessings can be explained in both natural and supernatural forms. Although the role of natural factors in this matter is significant, the role of supernatural factors, such as the evolution of the soul, the inner form of gratitude, and divine will and intention, in increasing blessings is highly important. These findings have led to the elimination of theoretical ambiguities regarding the issue of gratitude and the increase in blessings, resulting in greater inclination of people toward gratitude and adherence to this Islamic model.
