Muslim (2965) narrated that ‘Aamir ibn Sa‘d said:

Sa‘d ibn Abi Waqqaas was with his camels when his son ‘Umar came to him and when Sa‘d saw him he said: I seek refuge with Allah from the evil of this rider.

Then he dismounted and said to him: You are busy with your camels and sheep and you have left the people contending with one another for kingship?

Sa‘d struck him on the chest and said: Be quiet! I heard the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) say:

“Allah loves the slave who is pious, independent of means and hidden from the people.”

An-Nawawi (may Allah have mercy on him) said:

“hidden from the people” refers to one who is anonymous and is focused on worship and taking care of his own affairs. End quote.

Ibn al-Jawzi (may Allah have mercy on him) said:

What he meant by hidden from the people is one who is not known, because the one who is not known is usually safe.

End quote from Kashf al-Mushkil (p. 167)

Al-Fudayl ibn ‘Iyaad (may Allah have mercy on him) said:

If you are able not to be known, then do so. What harm will it do you if you are not known? What harm will it do you if no one praises you? What harm will it do you to be blameworthy before people if you are praiseworthy before Allah, may He be glorified and exalted?

End quote from at-Tawaadu‘ wa’l-Khumool by Abu Bakr al-Qurashi (p. 43).

This advice is even more poignant today, due to plethora of issues that come with fame. A century ago, no living person will have tens of millions of people as fans. But due to technological advancement, a billion people can keep tab in the life of one individual.
