The worship in which showing off (riya') enters

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He mentioned that if worship is connected with showing off, it is invalidated by it. Some people ask about the prayer in which showing off enters: does he have to repeat it, O Shaykh?

The Shaykh:
And he turns away from it because it is not valid, because Allah says:
I am the One, One Who does not stand in need of a partner. If anyone does anything in which he associates anyone else with Me, I shall abandon him with one whom he associates with Allah.أنا أعانى الشركاء عن الشرك من عمل عملا أشرك معي فيه غيري تركته وشركه
Sahih Muslim 2985


The questioner:
Does he repeat it, O Shaykh?

The Shaykh:
If the obligatory prayer is finished, then if it was a voluntary prayer, he has to make it up.
