salaAllahu a’alayhi wa salam said:
“The greatest fear I have about you [Muslims] is minor shirk (lesser polytheism).That is, doing good deeds for show. On the day when Allah will reward people for their deeds, He will tell them ‘Go to those people for whose attention and praise you did these deeds, and see if they will reward you.” [Ahmad]
There are three signs of a show-off [originally stated by ‘Ali ibn Abu Talib]:
He is lazy when alone
active when with people
and does more work when he is praised for it and less when blamed for it
So be careful when doing a good deed. Remember for whom you should be doing it. Remember your purpose.
