Sincerity

He is the only one that sees the secrets And sees what is hidden inside the person He commanded His slaves with the most beloved thing to Him, Which is the greatest way to be near Him He commanded them with sincerity Sincerity is to rid the heart of all besides Allah

So the slave directs his worship to his Lord And his Lord looks into his heart and finds none beside Him If he talks, he talks for Allah And if he acts, he acts for Allah Then his speech and actions become pleasant And his struggle is rewarded And he doesnt lose in his trade with Allah Sincerity is needed in every word he hears And in every word he says In fact in every moment he lives Those before us didnt surpass us And the successful ones did not gain success Except through sincerity, after the facilitation by Allah

Sincerity is to turn to the heart And ask what is in it for his Lord And to call upon ones self saying Enough hypocrisy and enough showing off And enough seeking peoples pleasure And enough seeking praise and thanks And to turn to Allah and to prepare for the hereafter The Day when upon neither wealth nor sons will avail, But only he will prosper that brings to Allah a sound heart. (Surah 26, Verses 88 to 89) This sincerity is moved in the heart by the love of Allah The most truthful in their love to Allah are those who are most sincere to Him And the most truthful in their love to Allah are those who strive in deeds for Allah We feed you for the sake of Allah alone; No reward do we desire from you, We only fear a Day of distressful wrath from the side of our Lord. (Surah 96)
