3825. It was narrated from 'Umar bin Al-KJat@b that the Prophet g said: "Actions are but by intentions, and each person will have but that which he intended. Thus, he whose emigration was for the sake of Allih and His Messenger, his emigration was for the sake of AU%h and His Messenger, and he whose emigration was to achieve some worldly gain or to take some woman in marriage, his emigration was for that for which he emigrated." (Sa!ci!z)

3794 - أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَيَّانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ وَقَّاصٍ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «إِنَّمَا الْأَعْمَالُ بِالنِّيَّةِ، وَإِنَّمَا لِامْرِئٍ مَا نَوَى، فَمَنْ كَانَتْ هِجْرَتُهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ، فَهِجْرَتُهُ إِلَى اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ، وَمَنْ كَانَتْ هِجْرَتُهُ لِدُنْيَا يُصِيبُهَا، أَوِ امْرَأَةٍ يَتَزَوَّجُهَا، فَهِجْرَتُهُ إِلَى مَا هَاجَرَ إِلَيْهِ»

Commentary

An oath also forms a part of the affairs of the world. Hence, an oath shall be considered reliable or valid according to the intention of the one who takes it, or the signification of an oath would be interpreted and considered trustworthy, according to the signification intended by the taker of the oath. (This Hadīth and its details have preceded earlier. See Hadīth 75)
