for our deeds based on intention, as if our intention is wrong we will
not get reward for our good deeds and beside this we will be committing
shirk because we did a deed which should be done for the sake of
Allah,for the sake of other than him and that will leads us to hellfire
Verily, in the body is a piece of flesh which, if sound, the entire body
is sound, and if corrupt, the entire body is corrupt. Truly, it is the
heart.

blackness will be increased until it overcomes his heart. It is the
covering that Allah has mentioned: No, rather a covering is over their
hearts from what they have earned.” (83:14) (Sunan al-Tirmidhī 3334)

Had We revealed it as a non-Arabic Quran, they would have certainly
argued, “If only its verses were made clear ˹in our language. What! A
non-Arabic revelation for an Arab audience!” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “It is a
guide and a healing to the believers. As for those who disbelieve, there
is deafness in their ears and blindness to it ˹in their hearts˺. It is as
if they are being called from a faraway place.

O Allah, bring our hearts together, reconcile between us, guide us to
ways of peace, and deliver us from darkness into light. Keep us away from
immorality, outwardly and inwardly, and bless us in our hearing, our
seeing, our hearts, our spouses, and our children. Accept our repentance,
for You alone are the Relenting, the Merciful. Make us grateful for Your
blessings, praising and accepting them, and give them to us in full.
