Assalamu Alaikum,
“Actions are but by intentions and every person shall have only that which they intended”.
This hadith reminds us that the value of our actions lies in our intentions. even small deeds can carry great reward when done sincerely for the sake of allah Its a reminder to check our intentions and align them with allahs will. as it's the purity of our actions meaningful and truly rewarding.
I've been thinking about how much we lose sight of intention. We believe that the good work somehow magically comes out as good outcome. But actually, the heart is where it begins. Purification of intention makes everyday into the miraculous. A smile, a helping hand, a silent prayer done with the proper intention become acts of worship.
That is to say:
A small act performed with a clean heart might carry enormous reward.
Our state from the inside is as significant as our actions on the outside.
So let us take this moment to reflect: Are our deeds motivated by Allah's pleasure? Are we pleasing Him, or are we pleasing people?
So let us take effort to purify our motives—not to perfection, but to presence. Presence with the honesty of our intention.
