حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْحَلَبِيُّ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ ثنا هَمَّامُ ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ عُتَيْبَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى عَنْ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَة قَالَ

مَرَّ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ رَجُلٌ فَرَأَى أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مِنْ جِلْدِهِ وَنَشَاطِهِ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَوْ كَانَ هَذَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنْ كَانَ خَرَجَ يَسْعَى عَلَى وَلَدِهِ صِغَارًا فَهُوَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَإِنْ كَانَ خَرَجَ يَسْعَى عَلَى أَبَوَيْنِ شَيْخَيْنِ كَبِيرَيْنِ فَهُوَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَإِنْ كَانَ يَسْعَى عَلَى نَفْسِهِ يُعِفُّهَا فَهُوَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَإِنْ كَانَ خَرَجَ رِيَاءً وَمُفَاخَرَةً فَهُوَ فِي سَبِيلِ الشَّيْطَانِ»

✧ A man passed by the Prophet ﷺ, and the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ noticed his vigor and activity. They said, "O Messenger of Allah, if only this were in the cause of Allah!" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "If he went out striving to provide for his young children, then he is in the cause of Allah. If he went out striving to provide for two elderly parents, then he is in the cause of Allah. If he went out striving for himself to keep himself chaste, then he is in the cause of Allah. And if he went out for show and pride, then he is in the cause of Satan."
