Grammar Rules

Indefinite noun
شَاكِرًۭا (Thankful) has no ال and takes tanwīn (the "n" sound at the end), so it means "a" or "some" — not a specific one.
We translate it as "a/an" or leave it general.

Sahih International

[He was] grateful for His favors. He [i.e., Allāh] chose him and guided him to a straight path.
