وَعَنْ شَدَّادِ بْنِ أَوْسٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُول: «من صَلَّى يُرَائِي فَقَدْ أَشْرَكَ وَمَنْ صَامَ يُرَائِي فَقَدْ أَشْرَكَ وَمَنْ تَصَدَّقَ يُرَائِي فَقَدْ أَشْرَكَ» رَوَاهُمَا أَحْمد
Shaddad bin Aws Narrated from:
Sayyiduna Shaddad ibn Aws رضي الله عنه narrated that he heard Allah's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم say, "He who offers salah (prayer) to show off has committed polytheism. He who fasts to show off has committed polytheism. He who gives charity to show off has committed polytheism." [2]
