Oh you, Dear Seeker, will not be able to rise to carry out the commands of Allah Most High until you monitor your heart and limbs in your every moment and every breath, from the time you wake up until the time you sleep.
You have to learn the secret of Ali Maula when his enemy spit on his face and he removed his sword from neck that his own emotion may not interfere in the cause of Allah Pak.
While telling people Allah ﷻ you should not let your emotion/desire/interest take benefit from it.
This is a very old Islamic tradition, still alive in parts of Turkey. When a white blanket of snow covers everything - people go to the tops of mountains peaks and scatter seeds and food for the birds through the snowing season so as not to let the birds die of starvation. This deed was started by the Muslim caliph Umar bin Abdul Aziz and is narrated in various books of history and quoted as “Go and spread seeds on the tops of mountains - may the birds not die of starvation in a Muslim country.”
