Leaving a Qur'an recitation out of fear of showing off


301

Q 2: I love to recite and memorize the Qur'an but whenever I remember Riya' (showing-off), I fear to commit it, so I stop memorizing for fear of that. Could you kindly advise?


A: Seek Allah's Help, be sincere to Allah, and start memorizing the Book of Allah without hesitation. Resist and ward off Waswasah (insinuating thoughts from Satan), for they are tricks that frustrate and drive people away from doing good deeds. (Part No. 3; Page No. 100) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
