Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 1112 — a man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ ، قَالَ : نَا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ : نَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ : نَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ سَلَّامٍ عَنْ هُودِ بْنِ عَطَاءٍ قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ شَدَّادًا أَبَا عَمَّارٍ يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا أُمَامَةَ يَقُولُ : جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، أَرَأَيْتَ رَجُلًا يَلْتَمِسُ الْخَيْرَ وَالذِّكْرَ ، مَا لَهُ ؟ قَالَ : I " لَا شَيْءَ لَهُ I " يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ، إِنَّ اللهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى لَا يَقْبَلُ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ إِلَّا مَا خَلَصَ لَهُ ، وَابْتُغِيَ بِهِ . I " لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ هُودٍ إِلَّا مُعَاوِيَةُ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : عُثْمَانُ I " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah, what do you say about a man who seeks (the reward of the Hereafter) and (worldly) fame and renown: what will he get?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There is nothing for him." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said this three times (and then said): "Indeed, Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, accepts of deeds only that which is purely for Him and by which His pleasure alone is sought."
Only Mu'awiyah narrated this hadith from Hud, and Uthman is alone in narrating it.
