DO THE GOOD FOR THE SAKE OF ALLAH ONLY
Ahmad ibn Hanbal related that the Prophet, may Allah raise his rank, said what means: “Certainly, I fear most for you to commit the smaller shirk.”
The Companions asked, “What is the smaller shirk?”
The Messenger of Allah answered, “Insincerity.”
Insincerity is doing the good deed to gain praise from the people. This is the opposite of sincerity in obeying Allah.
Sincerity is performing acts of worship and obeying Allah to gain His reward alone.
Al-Bukhariyy and Muslim related that the Prophet, may Allah raise his rank said, what means: “The good deeds are accepted when done with proper intentions.”
So, if the pubescent Muslim does the prayers so that the people will say good things about him, such as “This person prays a lot” or “This person is a very good Muslim,” he will not be rewarded for his prayers, even though he does them all.
Instead he has fallen into the sin of riya’, because he did an act of worship to please the people.
Similarly, if a person fasts so the people say about him “He is detached from worldly matters and is a good worshipper,” he is insincere in his fasting. His fasting is valid, but he is sinful and has no reward for his fasting.
Similarly, every act of obedience done for the praise of people is an enormous sin and not rewardable. The Muslim must do the obedience such as praying and fasting for the sake of Allah only! … See MoreSee Less

57 – أخبرني عن حبيبي ﷺ
مِنْ مُعْجِزَاتِهِ تَسْبِيحُ الطَّعَامِ فِي يَدِهِ أَخْرَجَ الْبُخَارِيُّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: كُنَّا نَأْكُلُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صلّى الله عليه وسلّم الطَّعَامَ وَنَحْنُ نَسْمَعُ تَسْبِيحَ الطَّعَامِ. وَهَذِهِ الْمُعْجِزَاتُ الثَّلاثُ أَعْجَبُ مِنْ إِحْيَاءِ الْمَوْتَى الَّذِي هُوَ أَحَدُ مُعْجِزَاتِ الْمَسِيحِ. وَمِنْ مُعْجِزَاتِهِ أَنَّهُ لَمَّا كَانَ الصَّحَابَةُ الْكِرَامُ يَحْفُرُونَ الْخَنْدَقَ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ عَرَضَتْ لَهُمْ صَخْرَةٌ كَبِيرَةٌ فَأَخْبَرُوا بِذَلِكَ قَائِدَهُمْ مُحَمَّدًا فَجَاءَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخَذَ الْمِعْوَلَ فَسَمَّى ثَلاثًا ثُمَّ ضَرَبَ الصَّخْرَةَ فَنَزَلَتْ رَمْلًا سَائِلًا. وَمِنْ مُعْجِزَاتِهِ عَلَيْهِ الصَّلاةُ وَالسَّلامُ أَنَّهُ أَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْيَمَامَةِ بِغُلامٍ يَوْمَ وُلِدَ وَقَدْ لَفَّهُ فِى خِرْقَةٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «يَا غُلامُ مَنْ أَنَا» فَأَنْطَقَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى الْغُلامَ فَقَالَ أَنْتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «بَارَكَ اللَّهُ فِيكَ» فَكَانَ هَذَا الْغُلامُ يُسَمَّى مُبَارَكَ الْيَمَامَةِ. … See MoreSee Less

(28) تكلم عن صفة الكلام لله تعالى.
قال الإمام أبو حنيفة رضى الله عنه فى كتابه الفقه الأبسط «ويتكلم لا ككلامنا نحن نتكلم بالآلات من المخارج والحروف والله متكلم بلا ءالة ولا حرف».
فالله تعالى متكلم بكلام لا يشبه كلامنا ليس لكلامه ابتداء وليس له انتهاء لا يطرأ عليه سكوت أو تقطع لأنه ليس حرفا ولا صوتا وإنما هو صفة له تعالى لا يشبه كلام المخلوقين قال تعالى ﴿وكلم الله موسى تكليما﴾ [سورة النساء/164]. … See MoreSee Less
