Seeking The Pleasure of Allah – Deed Must be Performed as Taught by Prophet!

Al-Fudhayl bin `Iyyaad said: “The excellent deed is that which is the most sincere and the most correct.” He was then asked: “How is that, O Abul – Hasan?” He said: “The deed which is sincere but not correct will not be accepted. Likewise, the deed which is correct but not sincere will not be accepted, until it is both sincere and correct.” The sincere deed is that which is intended for Allah’s Pleasure alone; the correct deed is that which follows the Sunnah of the Prophet .
