وعن أبي موسى، رضي الله عنه أن أعرابيا أتى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال‏:‏ يا رسول الله الرجل يقاتل للمغنم، والرجل يقاتل ليذكر، والرجل يقاتل ليرى مكانه‏؟‏ وفي رواية‏:‏ يقاتل شجاعة، ويقاتل حَمِيّة‏.‏ وفي رواية‏:‏ ويقاتل غضبًا، فمن في سبيل الله‏؟‏ فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏:‏ ‏ "‏من قاتل لتكون كلمة الله هي العليا، فهو في سبيل الله‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏

A bedouin came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said: "O Messenger of Allah! One man fights for booty, another fights to win fame, and the third fights for show off." Another narration is: "One fights for displaying his valour, another fights out of his family pride." Another narration is: "One fights out of rage." He asked: "Which of them is fighting in the Cause of Allah?" The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "The one who fights so that Word of Allah (Islam) be exalted, is the one who fights in the Cause of Allah." [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
