though the voluntary work is easy to perform, the corresponding reward is great.
My Muslim sisters and brothers if you want your work to be accepted by Allah and gain
rewards, there are specific conditions for each work.
The first condition: the intention. Omar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard
the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Deeds are only
according to intentions and everybody will have according to his intentions.” (Agreed
upon). Any Muslim whose deeds and intentions are completely pure to Allah free of hypo-
crisy and dissimulation Allah will accept his deeds.
The second condition: good deeds should be performed according to God’s decree
and his Messenger’s guidance. Furthermore, any action that similar to actions of the disbe-
lievers and the People of the Book, it will not be accepted. In addition, actions that are
innovated or performed to satisfy personal desires will not be accepted.
The hypocrite’s deeds are rejected because his intention is corrupted, and he is in the
lowest depth of the fire. Allah, The Almighty, says:

“Verily, the hypocrites will be in the lowest depth (grade) of the Fire; no helper will you
find for them”. {145} (An-Nisa’)
Similarly, deeds which are innovated are rejected because the deeds are corrupted even
if the intention is right as the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon
him) said: “If anyone introduces in our matter something which does not belong to it, will
be rejected”. And he said: “Allah retain repentance of the man who practices innovation
until he abstains”. (Al Targheeb and Al Tarheeb by Shaykh Al Albany).
This book was written to benefit everybody, to gain the great reward from Allah, The
Almighty, to increase our good deeds and to elevate servants and get them closer to Allah.
