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 the people have, except like water being combined with fire.❞
[al-Fawaid, (No. 267) | Translated By Abbas Abu Yahya Miraath al-Anbiyya]
