Proceeding with righteous deeds despite the fear of lacking sincerity

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner also says: A person will never reach absolute certainty that his sincerity is one hundred percent, no matter what he does. Is it obligatory for him to proceed with righteous deeds and spreading good, while supplicating to Allah to make his work sincere, or should he hold back and fear these actions?

Answer:
No, he should not hold back. Rather, he should act and ask Allah to help him, to grant him sincerity, success, and a sound intention. He should ask Allah.
