yaa ayyuhalladziina aamanuu ittaqullaaha haqqa tuqaatihi wa laa tamuutunna ilaa wa antum muslimuun Dear brother rahimakumullah.

Allah bestows love on those who believe and work deeds of righteousness (Quran 19:96). He is the Rabb (Only Cherisher and Sustainer) of Grace, Abounding (Quran 57:29). He listens to those who believe and do deeds of righteousness and gives them an increase of His Bounty (42:26). He grants the need of every creature (55:29). His bounties are not closed to any one (17:20). This is the reason why non-Muslims who desire and work for material prosperity, fame and other worldly needs in this world attain success in this temporary life. they receive Allhs reward for any righteous deed or virtuous act done in this world. If they desire happiness in this present world and work for it, Allah grants them their needs. However, their rewards will only be temporary because they do not meet the following conditions by which good deeds are rewarded both in this present life and in the eternal life Hereafter: For us as Muslim, we should always remember that there are three conditions by which our Good Deeds will be rewarded not

only in this world but also in the Hereafter (fil akhirah). First is the belief in Tawhd (Oneness of Allh). Allah says:

Say (O Muhammad): I am but a man like yourselves, (but) the inspiration has come to me, that your God is One God: whoever expects to meet His Rabb, let him work righteousness, and in the worship of his Rabb, admit no one as partner. (QS Al-Kahfi (18):110)

And indeed it has been revealed to you (O Muhammad), as it was to those (Allhs Messengers) before you: "If you join others in worship with Allh, (then) surely (all) your deeds will be in vain, and you will certainly be among the losers. (QS Az-Zumar (39):65)

Second is Ikhls (Sincerity) to Allah which means to do good deeds purely for the pleasure of Allah and not out of self-conceit to seek appreciation or praise from people.
Allah is well aware of what is in our hearts. There must not be a speck of insincerity in our heart. The nature of our intentions should be purely and solely for the pleasure of Allah Subhanahu Wa Taala.

Allah and His Messenger (s.a.w.s.) tell us:

Which means:Say, " Allah [alone] do I worship, sincere to Him in my religion. (QS Az-Zumar (39):14)

Which means:So invoke Allah , [being] sincere to Him in religion, although the disbelievers dislike it. (QS Al-Ghafir (40):14). Also in one Hadist: Umar ibn Al-Khattabt said: I heard Allhs Messenger (s.a.w.s.) saying, the reward of deeds depends upon the intentions and every person will get the reward according to what he has intended. Thus he whose migration was for Allah and His Messenger (s.a.w.s.), his migration had been for Allah and His Messenger (s.a.w.s.), and he whose migration was to achieve some worldly benefit or take some woman in marriage, his migration had been for that for which he migrated. (Bukhri 1/1 and Muslim 3/ 4692).

Third is that deeds must be in accordance with the Qurn and the Sunnah.

Allah makes it clear:

O you who have believed, obey Allah and obey the Messenger and do not invalidate your deeds. (QS Muhammad (47):33)

The third condition implies that we Muslims should refrain from committing Bidah (innovation or fabrication in religion). We should know that Islm is a perfect religion. It is not only complete, but applies to all generations at all times, under any circumstances. the Prophet (s.a.w.s.) serves as the best example for all of us. He not only stresses the importance of knowing and holding on to the Qurn and Sunnah, but also warns us to avoid Bidah (innovation or fabrication) in our religion.

Jbir ibn Abdullh (r.a.) narrated that Allhs Messenger (s.a.w.s.) said, the best speech is that embodied in the Book of Allh, and the best guidance is the guidance given by Muhammad. the most evil affairs are their innovations; and every innovation is an error. (Muslim 1885)

Dear Brother, lets increase our level of Taqwa. Please remember that on the Day of Judgment everything will be accounted.

That Day, the people will depart separated [into categories] to be shown [the result of] their deeds. So whoever does an atom's weight of good will see it, And whoever does an atom's weight of evil will see it. (Az-Zalzalah (99):6-8).

Allah will reward all of us Muslims who follow the Qurn and Sunnah and do good deeds solely for His Pleasure. He will reward us, if not in this world, then surely in the Hereafter.

My dear brothers,
The three conditions by which good deeds are rewarded imply that only those who sincerely accept and practice Islm will have their rewards with Allah n the Hereafter. Allah stresses:

If anyone desires a religion other than Islm (submission to Allh), never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter he will be in the ranks of those who have lost (all spiritual good). (QS Ali Imran 3:85) It is very clear that those who practice other ways of life outside Islm will have grievous punishments in Hell-Fire. The ways are: Shirk (polytheism), Nifq (hypocrisy), Bidah (innovation in religion) and Kufr (disbelief or rejection of truth). The hypocrites and the non-Muslims must sincerely turn to Islm, as it is the only way to salvation. Verily, the polytheists, the hypocrites, the Innovators in religion and the unbelievers will go to Hell-Fire, if they die in non-Islmic way or condition:

And that He may punish the Hypocrites, men and women and the Polytheists, men and women, who imagine an evil opinion of Allh. On them is a round of Evil, the Wrath of Allah s on them. He has cursed them and got Hell ready for them, and evil is it for a destination. (48:6)

Those, who disbelieve in Islm from among the People of the Book and among the Polytheists, will be in Hell-Fire to dwell therein forever. they are the worst of creatures. (QS Al Bayyinah (98):6) Dear brother, All of us should avoid committing hypocrisy. We should be careful to commit any of the following characteristics of a hypocrite: Abdullh ibn Amr (r.a.) narrated that Allhs Messenger (s.a.w.s.) said, Whoever has (the following) four characteristics will be a pure hypocrite: If he speaks, he tells a lie; if he gives a promise, he breaks it; if he makes a covenant, he proves treacherous; and if he quarrels, he behaves in a very imprudent evil insulting manner (unjust). And whoever has one of these characteristics, has one characteristic of a hypocrite, unless he gives it up. (Bukhri 4/403)

For our eternal success, we should sincerely pray to Allah for His forgiveness and refrain from any form of hypocrisy. We should fear the punishments due to the .hypocrites in the Hell-Fire

Verily, the hypocrites will be in the lowest depths of the Fire. No helper will you .)541:)4( find for them. (An-Nisa
