Allahuma barik well deserved brother. Tbh you come across as genuine and doing all this for the sake of ALLAH swt rather than for youtube likes and subs. You share beneficial knowledge and reminders and this one especially has made me think about myself and my own intentions. Don’t worry you are doing the right things so please keep going and spreading knowledge and awareness about our beautiful religion . Maybe ALLAH swt guide and bless us all and forgive us for our shortcomings Ameen 🤲

Ustadh Rhyad
Alhamdulillah, receiving this plaque in the post was both a moment of gratitude and reflection—very bittersweet. While it’s heartening to see the Deen of Allah ﷻ spread beautifully, it also reminded me of the Hadith where the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said:
إِنَّمَا الْأَعْمَالُ بِالنِّيَّاتِ
"Verily, actions are judged by their intentions."
This Hadith is actually very scary. You could be doing what seems to be the best and most rewarding of actions, but if your intention is flawed, those actions could mean nothing in the eyes of Allah ﷻ —or, even worse, become a source of punishment.
That’s why the Prophet ﷺ warned us that the first person to enter the Hellfire will be a scholar of Islam. Why? Because he sought knowledge for the praise of people, to be known by them and be referred to as a ‘Shaykh’ - rather than doing it sincerely for Allah.
No matter what path we choose in life, we must constantly check and purify our intentions so that everything we do in this world is solely for Allah’s ﷻ sake. The reality is that we came from Allah ﷻ, we must live for Allah ﷻ, and we will ultimately return to Allah ﷻ to be held accountable for our actions—and their intentions.
قُلْ إِنَّ صَلَاتِى وَنُسُكِى وَمَحْيَاىَ وَمَمَاتِى لِلَّهِ رَبِّ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
"Surely my prayer, my sacrifice, my life, and my death are all for Allah—Lord of all worlds." (6:162)
