WORKING FOR ALLAH'S SAKE
The messenger of Allah (May the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) warned his companions from announcing something they did for Allah's sake even after a long time to make them assure their degree. Someone may do something now and don't tell anyone about it, but after years he says: I did so and so for so and so. Or they may differ with each other and he said: I did him so and so, the prophet (May the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said about this:
"A man makes a deed secretly and Allah writes it as a secret deed, Satan keeps on him until he tells about it, then Allah changes it from a secret deed to an openly deed, if he talks about it a second time, then it will be removed from secret and open and written as hypocrisy." 1
Then, what should I do? Allah says:
"And he lifts the righteous deeds (to Allah)." 35-10
I.e. he lifts it to Allah and doesn't leave it in front of his eyes, but forgets it. If he wants to remember things, he should remember sins, faults and misdeeds in order to repent before death. You should know and be sure that Allah saves the good deeds and grows them for you double and doubles, Allah says:
"But if there is any good (done), He doubles it, (only this? No, but there's another grant) and gives from Him a great reward." 4-40
If we follow this method, good deeds will be spread and benefits will be more and more. No one would over respect and bow on meeting me because of his own utility or profit, and after he gets his utility, he turns away from me to the other side and doesn't even say As'salamu Alaykom, this is the school of utility in western countries.
But we are not like this, Allah says about us:
"Is there any reward for good other than good?" 55-60
We beg Allah to grant us sincerity in our hearts, truthfulness in our words and observing Allah in our behaviors and conditions, to make our organs and bodies obedient to Him, all our times used in remembering Him, thanking Him and worshipping Him and to guide us all over our lives to the deeds that lead to His satisfaction.
1- Ad'daylamy after Abi-Horayrah.
