Do not be fooled! On the Day of Judgement Allah will know the reason you performed your actions. The Prophet of Allah has informed his nation: “The first person to have judgement passed on him on the Day of Rising will be a man who was killed as a martyr (shahid) and he will be brought, and He will show him His blessings and he will acknowledge them. He will say, ‘So what did you do for them?’ and he will say, ‘I fought for You until I was killed as a martyr (shahid).’ He will say, ‘You lie! But rather you fought so it might be said, “[He was] daring,” and that has been said.’ Then the command will be given and he will be dragged on his face and thrown in the Fire. [Then there will be] a man who learnt knowledge and taught it and who recited the Quran. He will be brought, and He will show him His blessings and he will acknowledge them. He will say, ‘So what did you do for them?’ and he will say, ‘I learnt knowledge and taught it, and recited Quran for You.’ He will say, ‘You lie! But rather you learnt knowledge so that someone might say, “[He is] a man of knowledge,” and you recited Quran so that someone might say, “[He is] a Quran reciter,” and it has been said.’ Then the command will be given and he will be dragged on his face until he is thrown into the Fire. [Then there will be] a man to whom Allah was enormously generous giving him all kinds of wealth. He will be brought and He will show him His blessings and he will acknowledge them. He will say, ‘So what did you do for them?’ and he will say, ‘I didn’t leave any way in which You love wealth to be spent but that I spent in it for You.’ He will say, ‘You lie! But rather you did it so that someone might say, “He is very generous,” and it has been said.’ Then the command will be given and he will be dragged on his face until he is thrown in the Fire.” (Muslim) This Hadith illustrates the reality of deeds on the Day of Judgement, how can any of us think that we can fool the One who is All-Knowledgeable. This is sheer idiocy, rather the only people we fool are ourselves. (To read further click: https://muhammadalfaysalali.wordpress.com/2016/07/07/the-dangers-of-ostentation/?preview=true )
