4245. It was narrated from Thawbân that the Prophet ﷺ said: "I certainly know people of my nation who will come on the Day of Resurrection with good deeds like the mountains of Tihâmah, but Allâh will make them like scattered dust." Thawbân said: "O Messenger of Allâh, describe them to us and tell us more, so that we will not become of them unknowingly." He said: "They are your brothers and from your race, worshipping at night as you do, but they will be people who, when they are alone, transgress the sacred limits of Allâh." (Hasan)

Commentary
a. Many sins destroy good deeds.
b. Pretending to be pious in the presence of people, and committing sins in privacy without hesitation, is also a kind of hypocrisy, which destroys good deeds.
c. Praying Tahajjud (late night prayer) in fact is a good deed, but fearing Allâh in privacy is more important than praying Tahajjud.
