Lord Krishna says in The Bhagavad Gita,( The Sacred Scripture of Hinduism)
" It is indeed impossible for any embodied being to abstain from work altogether. But he who gives up the fruit of action, he is said to be the Relinquisher." Chapter xviii- Verse 11
The Gita insists not on the renunciation of actions but on performing duties with renunciation of desire for the fruits of such actions.
" An action which is obligatory, which is performed without attachment, without love or hate by one undesirous of fruit, that is said to be of Goodness." Chapter xviii- Verse 23

Salaam Dearest Sister/Daughter :)
The Sufis say that prayers for others, and not for yourself, are not weighted down by self=interest, and so float effortlessly to God. So serve others even in prayer.
Ya Haqq!
Beloved Papa Darvish,
Welcome back sweetheart :)) I am so happy to see you!! Hope all is well with you.
I completely agree with you dearest one, praying for others takes us closer to Him and is the best form of service to His blessed Creation.Alhamdullilah!
