Allah is Ash-Shakoor meaning the most grateful, the rewarder of good deeds, and is most appreciative. Allah notices the smallest of our acts of righteousness and rewards us for them in this life or the next. He is bountiful in giving and bestows great rewards for small amount of good.

And they will say, "Praise to Allah, who has removed from us [all] sorrow. Indeed, our Lord is Forgiving and Appreciative. (Quran 35:34)
