   Salam Brother Suhaib,
   Thank you for the beautiful khutbah. I have a question though and it is something that I have been struggling with for quite a long time. Inshalah you or any of the brothers and sisters can give me insight and help me with this issue.
   The issue is the wiswas of vanity. I, alhamdullillah, am involved at work and in my little community and make my day to day dawah. I am also taking it to the next level by getting involved with the theological seminary that is part of the school system I work for and I am trying to raise awarness about Islam. Wallah I do all I do for the sake of Allah. I tell my brothers at the masjid that one of the big motivations to be involved in the line of work I am in is to have a muslim name up there.
   My issue though is sometimes I feel that the reason I am benig articulate is to impress others. Even when I write here sometimes I have that issue and feel like I have to hold back because I am being pretentious or feel that I don't have much substance to be able to discuss some issues relevant to Islam. Again, I do it all for the sake of Allah and I am very contiontious of what I say (for fear of myself being held accountable for saying that which I do not know) but I keep getting this wiswas and I can't shake it off.
   Please advise.
   Your brother,
   Nomad78
