Alhamdulillah, Lord of the worlds,

and the prayers and peace be upon the people of the prophets and the Christians,

the Prophet Muhammad, the Great, and the Most Merciful, the Most Merciful.

My beloved brothers and sisters, have you ever come across those who fulfill their five daily prayers?

Not just the obligation, but beyond that they also take their time to fulfill the Sunnah and the Nephil,

which are the voluntary prayers, and beyond that they are very charitable.

And you find their lips are moving in what would be the remembrance of Allah, the praise of Allah,

yet their evil people, one might think, how is that possible?

Their mouths, when it comes to fellow worshippers, are full of deception,

full of bad words, vulgar words, yet these people, they have the Quran opened early in the morning.

They get up at times for Salatut Tahadjun, which is the pre-don prayer that is voluntary.

And at the same time, you would find them doing many good deeds, they would dress appropriately,

they would dress very modestly, but unfortunately, Shaitan takes over by making them belittle fellow human beings,

they would deceive, they would utter vulgar words, they would make life difficult for others,

they would create problems, they would gossip, and they would eat the wealth of someone,

they probably could do major sin against fellow human beings, the Prophet Salallahu Alaihi Wasallam speaks about them.

He speaks about them in more than one narration.

In fact, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala warns us about those who think they are doing good deeds,

but they have wasted their deeds.

So this is a warning, not everyone who appears to be pious is actually pious.

Some people who appear to be pious are actually evil people.
