Leaving off righteous deeds out of fear of showing off

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is there anything wrong with leaving off a righteous deed out of fear of showing off?

Answer:
Yes, one does not leave off a deed out of fear of showing off. This is from Shaytan, who causes him to fail and whispers to him. He should perform the deed and be sincere to Allah the Exalted.
