Doing Ibadah To Follow Footsteps Of Prophet Muhammad
Try to follow the common good people. They have natural ways to think and act. Man is responsible for his consciencentious judgment and is not accountable for them even if they are wrong.
@Irfan76 sir as you said here that the distinguishing factor between a man praying namaz to please mom with intention that pleasing mom earns Allah’s pleasure, here as you said that since the intention of pleasing God is conducive through pleasure of mom, so this is permissible. But if someone decides to follow that way of example of to get money and then spending that money for pleasure of Allah, according to my understanding of what you said , since you said that because getting money is something that is outside of realm of worship and pleasure of Allah then later again taking it back into realm of worship by spending in charity, this is not permissible because an act of worship was done to do something outside the realm of pleasure of Allah (eg earning money). So sir just for information and understanding, if we suppose for example that getting money or earning money was also a separate worship and pleasure of Allah(in religion), then this whole example would have been fine and not shirk because through whole that example only the worship of Allah is done for his pleasure like praying namaz to earn money (which is done purely for Allah’s pleasure [keeping in mind that here I’m supposing that earning money itself is pleasure of Allah just like making mother happy or obeying her command]). In that case it would have been fine, right sir? Exactly in the same way as like someone who prays to please mom only because wanting to please Allah through pleasing mom. And pleasing mom itself is something pleasing to Allah. So his all intention was to please Allah by a direct action (Allah loves worship in itself) and another indirect action (pleasure of mother or fulfilling of her command to pray, is achieved and Allah loves it) so nothing of worship is done outside the realm of conducive pleasure of Allah. Am i right? Where as the action of earning money is being problem as this is not what Allah was pleased with. It was only how this money was later spent on Allah’s way that he wanted to please Allah later with. And this would have not been a problem if for example earning money in itself would have been a worship as well etc? Am i understanding right?
