The Impact of Showing Off and Negligence on the Invalidity of Deeds and Their Reward
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The one who shows off invalidates his deed, and he commits a sin.
The Shaykh:
He does not incur a heavy burden, but were it not for that, no deed would be invalidated.
Another questioner:
A scholar said: You have no Fajr prayer except for its bond.
The Shaykh:
That is, you turn to it and are sincere in it for the sake of Allah.
Another questioner:
So, do you commit a sin if you do not have humility in it?
The Shaykh:
The reward is missed, or it suffices, but the specific reward is missed. One is not required to recite more than what one understands, but it suffices, and it is not expiated by repeating it. One may have many intrusive thoughts, but it is not expiated by repeating it.
