Quiet Sincerity: Doing Good Without Needing Praise

Introduction In a world where everything is posted, sincerity becomes radical. This wiki explores the beauty of doing quiet good that only Allah sees.

Why Sincerity is Hard Now

• Constant exposure makes us want to share everything.
• We’re afraid our efforts don’t matter unless they’re validated.

How to Train Ikhlas (Sincerity)

1. Do one act a day just for Allah. Don’t even tell yourself.
2. When tempted to share, ask: Would I still do this if no one clapped?
3. Name your Niyyah: Say, “Ya Allah, this is for You alone.”

Qur’anic Model: “We feed you only for the countenance of Allah. We wish not from you reward or gratitude.” — Surah Al-Insan 76:9

When You Slip Up:

• Don’t stop the act. Fix your intention and keep going.

Barq Tool: Use the daily entries page as your private sincerity log— where you can write what you did solely for Allah. Not public, not sharable. Just a vault of hidden deeds.
