Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: What is your guidance for a person who feels that he never performs his deeds with sincerity, even though he always intends a good intention? But when he begins the deed, whispers come to him that this deed is not done for the sake of Allah.
Answer:
This is from Shaytan. He should seek refuge in Allah from Shaytan and not pay attention to it. He should make his intention and purpose good, and not be affected by the whisper that he is pleased or that all of this is from Shaytan to prevent him from working and to cause him to fail in his work. So he should not pay attention to it and should seek refuge in Allah from it. Yes.
