In brief, I feel that all my worship is not purely for.. More

Fear of showing off in reciting Quran
Asaalaamu alaykum, Shaykh. I am on the path of memorising the Quran. Since I started this path, I have been having doubts whether I memorise Quran to impress others with the way that I recite (Tilaawah).

Fearing insincerity of intention in doing good deeds
Asslaamu alaykum, Shaykh. I have read almost all the fatwas regarding the intention, but I still have the same concern.

Assalaamu alaykum. I know that abandoning a Muslim for more than three days is haram.
