اللهم إني أعوذ بك أن أشرك بك شيئا وأنا أعلمه و أستغفرك لما لا أعلمه Allahumma inni a3uudhu bika an ushrika bika shay2an wa ana a3lamuhu wa astaghfiruka limaa laa a3lamuhu Oh Allah I seek refuge in You that I commit Shirk with You while I am aware of it and I ask You to forgive me if I am doing it unintentionally.

The beautiful dua which Yasir Qadhi said was "Allahuma inne a'uthoobika an ushrika bika shay'an wa ana ahlamuhu wa astagfiruka li'maa la ahlamuhu - Oh Allah I seek refuge in you that I commit shirk with You while I am aware of it and I ask you to forgive me if I done it unintentionally" Forgive me & correct me if I am wrong.

الَّلهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ أَنْ أُشْرِكَ بِكَ وأَنا أَعلَمُ وأَستَغفِرُكَ لما لا أَعلَمُ Allahumma ini aujubika un ushrika bika wa ana a’lamu wa astaghfiruka lima la a’lamu.”

Oh Allah please protect us from this shameless disease of Riyaa.

[@NaderHallak]

Allah SWT will forgive anything you have done and were not at knowledge that it is bad or haram. As long as you have a sincere intention to go back to Allah, that is all that is needed (a sincere heart). wallahu a'alam

[@fizshaikh8348]

subhanallah

[@fazalbk]

Allah Taala needs prayer with pure intention and not a shared offering. Dr. Yasir Qadhi convincingly points out the great danger of intention of momin being mixed with seeking appreciation of people also while praying to Allah or doing good deeds for pleasure of Allah. May Allah Taala save us from such dual intentions. May Allah Taala bless this great scholar. Aameen

[@mohammedats]

I think the beautiful thing about islam is that it didn't condemn the basic human nature like jelaous,envy,hatred,lust,pride jus like that hardly it actually says it is common to get those but you will be in trouble only if you hold on to it all the way.....so that's like accepting the human biology and at the same time we can evade all those through discipline and practice..... isn't this a highest spiritual thing....

agreed and very well said brother.

God bless you , that is good .

[@OddmentTweak]

Masha'Allah, Sh. Yasir has covered this topic beautifully!

[@MDK83]

1.) Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh Because of that share from @BRUNNSPARK hundreds of more people will read and recite, internalize that very same dua that he made. I think that sharing our inner most thoughts with sincerity encourages others to do the same and it opens the hearts of others. As Sheikh Yasir Qadhi said: "One of the blessings that Allah gives to any sincere action, is that He causes the people to love that action, and he causes that action to be accepted by the...

[@AymenProductionsTV]

I think it is something that causes you to be cursed. So even if it is not shirk, it's still a terrible thing to do. May Allah help you to be strong in obedience, and the same with us all.

[@Joe-ox1pc]

I have plenty of queries in regards this issue 1. What about someone who refrain from doing good deeds which he/ she usually does in private when there's people around because of shyness. 2. Someone who lock himself in a room while doing salah fearing that people might enter the room and interrupt his concentration or lowering his recitation so that people outside the room could not hear it. Is this Riya as well ? 3. Someone who delay his salah because of worldly business. For example, working in the office or in the midst of school lesson. It seems like he is giving more priority to dunya than hereafter. Is this also Riya. 4. What about a person who goes early to the Masjid for the Jummah because he wish to do iktikaf in the masjid and to have his lunch there and also to meet a friend. Does he gain any rewards ? I wish to ask these questions to scholars but I have yet receive response from them pertain to other questions that I emailed them weeks ago. Can anybody with provide an explanation to this please. Thanks.

Perhaps it will inspire others to do the same. Besides, he's anonymous on KZbin!

I would like to know whether letting someone to copy from you at exams for to keep the freindship relationship is a minor shirk as well.

[@blessingsneutrality6121]

Madina Ashkey What’s your sincere intention in letting your friend copy from you? Do you want to let them pass, or are you begging to keep a dead friendship?

[@imranmir1]

Frankly, that’s a stupid question. Don’t mind. You’re doing a bad deed, which has nothing to do with shirk. I think you’re making fun, which itself is a sin

[@cheriecherie8635]

I think its not a stupid question. This type of deeds can be in many diffrent situations. Example: someone ask me for help. I am helping this person just to keep the friendship. So that the Person is ok with me or maybe thinks good about me. Not for Allah. So the intention of this all is not pure, as i can understand ? or?

[@rahmathasan4773]

Assalamu alaikkum.... My daughter name is riya.. Neighbors told meaning was not good... Pls suggest me..I want to change my daughter name???

Brother it is fine, as long as you don’t name your child after a pagan idol name

[@TheMiz_0]

A man cannot show off if he prays at home sincerely to Allah whilst living totally isolate. But I have noticed shaytan sometimes intice me that I had a bit of pride in my recitation being sound whilst in prayer . I quickly remove that thought. It is shaytan only

[@nofapper4daysago60]

What if i feel like if iam showing off even if iam not showing off...?

[@imranmir1]

You will know in your heart. If you feel you’re showing off, then you are. Recite the Dua of sincerity

[@nofapper4daysago60]

@@imranmir1 thanks for reply🙂

[@adamstewart7856]

Does praying in public so that people see count as Riyaa?

[@hope2600]

if you do it becuase its time and you usually dont want that other people look at you, then its not. But if you do it that people say "Wow what a muslim!" then its riyaa and you have to repent. Allah (saw) knows best

[@somcana]

if you happen to be praying outside and people happen to see you than that is not riyaa; however, if you go out so people can see you pray, it depends what your intention is; is it to show your religion overtly for educational or is it to show off?

[@dwccbiggestfan_urbanexplor3962]

No it’s not. Sometimes it’s time to pray and you have no choice. I pray outside a lot but I don’t do it to show off but I don’t care who sees me

[@imranmir1]

Can I donate a wheelchair to a non-Muslim?

[@shareit654]

Sorry brother

[@asadirfan393]

But i think there is no point of sharing this here. and repenting to ALLAH on KZbin !

[@blessingsneutrality6121]

Asad Irfan We don’t repent to Allah All-Mighty through KZbin, the KZbin platform connects those who are in darkness to grant them understanding & light from God. If I’ve never watched this video I would have never known, and that is the mercy of my Lord. This is charity, and I pray God blesses Yasir Qadhi for the people he’s reminded through KZbin and all of his other social media’s.
