Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (as): Imam al-Baqir (as) was once asked by his companion Zurara, about a man who performs a good deed which someone happens to see, as a result of which he feels good and happy. Imam replied, It it is alright as long as he did not [originally] perform the action for that purpose. Everyone naturally wants their good deeds to be seen by people. al-Kāfī
