Silsilat al-Ahadith al-Sahihah

Lady Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) says: I said to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): Hisham bin Mughirah used to maintain ties of kinship, host guests, free slaves, and feed people, and if he had found the era of Islam, he would have become a Muslim as well. Will these deeds prove beneficial for him? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “No, he used to give for worldly purposes, fame and reputation, and flattery and praise; he never said even for a single day: O my Lord! Forgive my sins on the Day of Resurrection.”
