English translation

3142. It was narrated that Abû 'Umâmah Al-Bâhilî said: "A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: 'What do you think of a man who fights seeking reward and fame - what will he have?' The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'He will not have anything.' He repeated it three times, and the Prophet ﷺ said to him: 'He will not have anything.' Then he said: 'Allâh does not accept any deed, except that which is purely for Him, and seeking His Face.'" (Hasan)

3140 - أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ هِلَالٍ الْحِمْصِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حِمْيَرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ سَلَّامٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ، عَنْ شَدَّادٍ أَبِي عَمَّارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ الْبَاهِلِيِّ، قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا غَزَا يَلْتَمِسُ الْأَجْرَ وَالذِّكْرَ، مَالَهُ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا شَيْءَ لَهُ» فَأَعَادَهَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ، يَقُولُ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا شَيْءَ لَهُ» ثُمَّ قَالَ: «إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَقْبَلُ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ إِلَّا مَا كَانَ لَهُ خَالِصًا، وَابْتُغِيَ بِهِ وَجْهُهُ»
