He is not in need of meat, blood, or outward displays of worship.

He also strives to sacrifice his pride, ostentation, desires, and everything that distances him from Allah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Deed Can Become Immense Through Sincerity<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<p>The true value of deeds depends upon the taqw\u0101 that accompanies them.
