“Remember your Lord when you become angry.”

Sincerity is to be saved from Shirk and Riyā’

 

Fuayl ibn Iya (رحمه الله) said:

Performing an action for the sake of the people is Shirk, and abandoning an action for the sake of the people is showing off (Riyā’). And (true) sincerity is for Allāh to save you from both of them (Shirk and Riyā’).

Al-Bidāyah Wa an-Nihāyah of Imām Ibn Kathīr (10/476)

Every time an individual performs a sin...




Ibnul Qayyim رحمه الله said:

Every time an individual performs a sin, he drops a level and will continue to fall until he ends up in the lowest state . However, every time he performs a good deed, he will be raised until he ends up in the highest position.

124. "But whosoever turns away from My Reminder (i.e. neither believes in this Qur’ān nor acts on its teachings.) verily, for him is a life of hardship, and We shall raise him up blind on the Day of Resurrection.”
