In this lesson from *Kitāb al-Tawḥīd*, we study the chapter concerning those who perform righteous deeds seeking worldly benefits. This chapter follows the chapter on *riyāʾ* because both involve corrupt intentions. In *riyāʾ*, a person performs an act of worship to receive people’s praise and admiration. Here, the person performs righteous deeds seeking worldly rewards—such as wealth, status, health, employment, or other material benefits—rather than sincerely seeking the reward of Allah and the Hereafter. We discuss the dangers of allowing worldly ambitions to corrupt acts of worship, the importance of sincerity, and how a believer should make the Hereafter his primary objective. May Allah purify our intentions and make all our deeds sincerely for His sake. #KitabAlTawhid #Tawhid #Sincerity #Ikhlas #Riyaa #IslamicReminder #Aqeedah #Salafiyyah
