Q: When I do a good deed, my intention should be only to do it for the sake of Allah (swt). My question is, should I intend to get reward and countenance of Allah (swt), or is doing it for the sake of Allah swt enough, and the reward and countenance come with doing the deed for the sake of Allah (swt)?
A: Doing a good deed for the sake of Allah (swt) is sufficient enough. Remember, that Allah (swt) knows what we are thinking in our heart, and if your heart is pure, you will gain the ajr iA.
