Rewards for doing acts of kindness without any intention
Question
I like to do acts of kindness to my parents and siblings without any intention. Do I get any benefit or reward from it?
Answer
Any act of kindness done to any creation does not go without reward. Doing an act of kindness to one's family will certainly earn you great rewards on condition your intention for doing the good deed was not wrong.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
