Hadith 1 (Imam An-Nawawi) Action are but by Intentions

Your Action are judged by your Intentions

Actions are but by intentions; and every man shall have only that which he intended. Thus he whose migration (Hijrah to Madeenah from Makkah) was for Allaah and His Messenger, his migration was for Allaah and His Messenger, and he whose migration was to achieve some worldly benefit or to take some woman in marriage, his migration was for that for which he migrated.

What you need to understand about these hadith’s is that many people engages themselves in doing something for people to see, but not specifically for the purposes of God.

If your intention, you help that man or that woman for people to see that you are the one that come to the rescue then, your reward is already given to you by the people that see you, but if you did it for God to bless you, then you shall surely stick to what God said when your are given out something to someone.

Allah said when your right hand give out something, don’t let your left hand know what you give out.

See I want to let you people understand what God said here, he is not specifically talking about your hand, but don’t let people know that you are the one that give that man or woman that money, not even your close relatives.

عَنْ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَبِي حَفْصٍ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ: إنَّمَا الْأَعْمَالُ بِالنِّيَّاتِ، وَإِنَّمَا لِكُلِّ امْرِئٍ مَا نَوَى، فَمَنْ كَانَتْ هِجْرَتُهُ إلَى اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ فَهِجْرَتُهُ إلَى اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ، وَمَنْ كَانَتْ هِجْرَتُهُ لِدُنْيَا يُصِيبُهَا أَوْ امْرَأَةٍ يَنْكِحُهَا فَهِجْرَتُهُ إلَى مَا هَاجَرَ إلَيْهِ. رَوَاهُ إِمَامَا الْمُحَدِّثِينَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بنُ إِسْمَاعِيل بن إِبْرَاهِيم بن الْمُغِيرَة بن بَرْدِزبَه الْبُخَارِيُّ الْجُعْفِيُّ [رقم:1]، وَأَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ مُسْلِمٌ بنُ الْحَجَّاج بن مُسْلِم الْقُشَيْرِيُّ النَّيْسَابُورِيُّ [رقم:1907] رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا فِي صَحِيحَيْهِمَا اللذِينِ هُمَا أَصَحُّ الْكُتُبِ الْمُصَنَّفَةِ.
