English translation
123. Narrated Abū Mūsā رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and asked, "O Allāh's Messenger! What kind of fighting is in Allāh's Cause? (I ask this), for some of us fight because of being enraged and angry and some for the sake of their pride and haughtiness." The Prophet ﷺ raised his head (as the questioner was standing) and said, "He who fights that Allāh's Word (i.e. Allāh's Religion of Islāmic Monotheism) should be superior, fights in Allāh's Cause."
