The Ruling on Riya' as a Form of Minor Hypocrisy

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I ask Allah to do you good. Your Eminence, father, the questioner asks: Is riya' (showing off in worship) a form of minor hypocrisy?

Answer:
It is placing a thing in the wrong place, because the mushrik (one who associates partners with Allah) placed worship in the wrong place, so he was called a wrongdoer. Yes.
