أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ هِلاَلٍ الْحِمْصِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حِمْيَرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ سَلاَّمٍ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ شَدَّادٍ أَبِي عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ الْبَاهِلِيِّ قَالَ
جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلاً غَزَا يَلْتَمِسُ الأَجْرَ وَالذِّكْرَ مَا لَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ شَىْءَ لَهُ فَأَعَادَهَا ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ يَقُولُ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ شَىْءَ لَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لاَ يَقْبَلُ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ إِلاَّ مَا كَانَ لَهُ خَالِصًا وَابْتُغِيَ بِهِ وَجْهُهُ

"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 Allah 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: 'Allah does not accept any deed, except that which is purely for Him, and seeking His Face.'"
