اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَمَنْ كانَ يَرْجُوا لِقاءَ رَبِّهِ فَلْيَعْمَلْ عَمَلًا صالِحاً وَ لا يُشْرِكْ بِعِبادَةِ رَبِّهِ أَحَداً قَالَ الرَّجُلُ يَعْمَلُ شَيْئاً مِنَ الثَّوَابِ لَا يَطْلُبُ بِهِ وَجْهَ اللَّهِ إِنَّمَا يَطْلُبُ تَزْكِيَةَ النَّاسِ يَشْتَهِي أَنْ يُسْمِعَ بِهِ النَّاسَ فَهَذَا الَّذِي أَشْرَكَ بِعِبَادَةِ رَبِّهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ أَسَرَّ خَيْراً فَذَهَبَتِ الْأَيَّامُ أَبَداً حَتَّى يُظْهِرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ خَيْراً وَ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ يُسِرُّ شَرّاً فَذَهَبَتِ الْأَيَّامُ أَبَداً حَتَّى يُظْهِرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ شَرّاً .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Al Husayn Bin Saeed, from Al Nazar Bin Suweyd, from Al Qasim Bin Suleyman, from Jarrah Al Madainy, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> regarding the Words of Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:18#h110"><a href="/books/quran:18#h110">[18:110]</a></a> therefore whoever hopes to meet his Lord, so he should do righteous deeds, and not associate anyone in the worship of his Lord</span>. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The man does something from the Reward-able deeds, not seeking the Face of the Allah<sup>azwj</sup> by it, but rather for purifying the people desiring that the people would hear him with it (become famous). So this is the one who is associating (committing Shirk) with the worship of his Lord<sup>azwj</sup>’. Then he<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> said: ‘There is none from a servant who does good deeds secretly, so the days go by for ever until Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> would Manifest goodness for him, and there is none from a servant who does an evil deed secretly, so the days would go by forever until Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> would Manifest the evil for him’.
