Riya' is derived from the root "Ra-Aa-Ya" meaning that a person does an action to attract people's attention. It is also used meaning "to pretend and show off to others". The meaning of riya' in religious context is that a person does a good action to pretend and show off to people, not for the sake of God. Riya' may happen both in worship such as in prayer and also in other than worship such as in infaq ["giving"].
