In The Name Of ALLAH Most Gracious And Most Mercifull. The Prophet (PBUH) Said " Pass On Knowledge From Me Even if it is Only One Verse " Bismillah Walhamdulillah Was Salaatu Was Salaam 'Ala Rasulillah Assalaam Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu
Riyaa (Showing Off).
Riyaa' is when One intends To Gain The People's Pleasure When Drawing Close To Allah Talah. It is Action Of The Heart And Not The Action Of The Tongue. For Example : One Can Draw Closer To Allah Ta'la in Worships ('Ibadaat) Or Many Other Things. So The One Who Prolongs His Prostration So That People Can See Him is Showing Off. The One Who Writes An Article So That People Say He is A Scholar is Showing Off. The One Who Gives A Lecture To impress The People is Showing Off. The One Who Gives A Khutbah So People Say He is A Good Khateeb Is Showing Off. The One Who Wears Rags So People Say He is Simple is Showing Off. The One Who Grows A Beard And Wears Jalbiyya So People Say He is Following Sunah is Showing Off. The One Who Walks With Head Down So People Think He is Pious is Showing Off. The One Who Carries A Small Copy Of The Quran And Reads it in Public To Show People is Showing Off. We Live in A Reality Where There is No Shame in Showing Off, Rather The Great Majority Of Muslims Are Naive And Unaware Of its Reality And Rules. Riyaa is Not Discovered By Anyone Except Allah Tala, Even The One Who is Doing it At Times is Not Aware Of it Unless He Enjoys Khalis Ikhlaas. Riyaa (showing off) is Absolutly Forbidden. Ibn Majah And Al-Bayhaqi Reported Wiht A Hasan isnad On The Authority Of Abu Saeed Al-Khudri That Prophet (saw) Said When He Saw Them Talking Abt The Maseeha Ad-Dajjal, He Said : " Shall I Not inform You What i I Fear Of You More Than The Maseeh Ud-Dajjal ?
We Said : Yes, Oh Messanger Of Allah ! He Said : It is The Hidden Shirk, Which is When A Man Stands Up For Prayer, Then Beautifies His Prayer For Because Of Another Man is Looking (at him)." in Another hadith the prophet (saw) said : " A little showing off (riyaa') is shirk."
