Our intention is one of the two most important
things. Muhammed (SAW) said that all actions
are judged on its intention. Allah (SWT) warns
us against worshipping Him with ulterior motives:
"Those who do good deeds only to be seen (of men)."
(Al-Ma'un, Q107:6)
One needs to be cautious and keep a constant look
over the ego. It is good to be ambitious but be
mindful because it can lead us down the wrong path
as Allah (SWT) says in Surah Al-Zukhruf:
"If anyone withdraws himself from remembrance
of (Allah) Most Gracious, We appoint for him an
evil one, to be an intimate companion to him. Such
(evil ones) really hinder them from the Path, but
they think that they are being guided aright!"
(Q43:36-37)
Always try to adopt two things throughout your life:
increase the amount of good that you are sending
before you and try to wipe out the blemishes from
your Book. It is a simple recipe but it has an
everlasting effect.
