hadith 9834
Imam Ali (AS) said, Verily Allah, the Glorified, has certain selected servants upon whom He bestows blessings for the benefit of the people, causing these [blessings] to remain in their possession as long as they grant them [to the people], but if they withhold them [from the people], He takes away these blessings from them and transfers them to others.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : إنَّ لِلّهِ سُبْحانَهُ عِباداً يَخْتَصُّهُمْ بِالنِّعَمِ لِمَنافِعِ الْعِبادِ يُقِرُّها فِي أيْدِيهِمْ ما بَذَلُوها فَإذا مَنَعُوها نَزَعَها مِنْهُمْ وَ حَوَّلَها إلى غَيْرِهِمْ

Imam Ali (AS) said, Nothing has the ability to make blessings last like showing gratitude for them and nothing beautifies them like granting them [to others].
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : لَنْ يَقْدِرَ أحَدٌ أنْ يَسْتَدِيمَ النِّعَمَ بِمِثْلِ شُكْرِها وَ لا يَزينَها بِمِثْلِ بَذْلِها

hadith 9856
Imam Ali (AS) said, The one upon whom the blessings of Allah are abundant, the peoples needs towards him also abound (so if he fulfils with it what Allah, the Glorified, has made obligatory for him, then he makes it last, and if he refuses what Allah, the Glorified, has made obligatory from it, then he has exposed it to cessation).
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : مَنْ كَثُرَتْ نِعَمُ اللّهِ عَلَيْهِ كَثُرَتْ حَوائِجُ النّاسِ إلَيْهِ (فَإنْ قامَ فيها بِما أوْجَبَ اللّهُ سُبْحانَهُ عَلَيْهِ فَقَدْ عَرَّضَها لِلدَّوامِ وَ إنْ مَنَعَ ما أوْجَبَ اللّهُ سُبْحانَهُ فيها فَقَدْ عَرَّضَها لِلزَّوالِ)
