Commentary
Whatever a person does — be it his dealings with others, giving a thing to others or withholding it from them, nurturing friendship or harbouring hatred towards others, or even tying the knot of his wedlock — if all this is not motivated by a selfish end or personal likes and dislikes, but done purely for the sake of Allāh, then it is a firm proof of the perfection of his faith.
