Our righteous predecessors feared fame because they feared what it could do to their sincerity. They would hide their good deeds, avoid recognition, and even go to great lengths so that people would not know who they were. ‘Abdullaah ibn al-Mubaarak رحمه الله was known to cover his face during expeditions so that people would not recognise him. The concern was not simply being known. It was the danger of the heart becoming attached to recognition, praise and publicity — and the danger of riyaa entering deeds that were meant for Allaah. If Allaah gives someone recognition while they are calling to the truth, that is a different matter. But we must constantly check our intentions: **Am I doing this for Allaah, or do I want people to know me?** A powerful reminder for anyone involved in da‘wah, teaching, social media or any public work. May Allaah protect our hearts from riyaa and grant us sincerity. #IslamicReminder #Riyaa #Sincerity #Dawah #IslamicKnowledge #MuslimReminder ... #like #subscribe #share ________________ 👍 Our socials: 🌍 https://heylink.me/onewaytoparadise/
