Doubting that a person's good deeds are out of showing off
Q 12: I intend to pray, fast, recite the Qur'an and strive hard to implement the obligations of the Qur'an and Sunnah, but sometimes I feel I am doing this to gain people's admiration, so I quit doing some good deeds out of fear. How can I get rid of this feeling?
A: You have to carry out the rituals of Islam in obedience to Allah's orders and seeking reward from Him. Do not pay attention to the obsessions which tell you that your deeds are considered Riya' (Showing-off), and try to overcome this feeling as much as you can.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
