Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said :
"Sincerity is not combined in the heart along with the love of being praised by the people , and being commended by them , and also having greed for what people have , except like water being combined with fire”
The prophet Saw said the best of dua is the dua in umm Al arafa , and the best of what I and the prophets before me have said is
لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ الْمُلْكُ، وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ، وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ
Focus on making this Dua
