I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "Whoever stands to give a sermon seeking nothing but to show off and gain reputation, Allah will make him stand on the Day of Resurrection in a place of showing off and reputation."
إني سمعت رسول الله ﷺ يقول: من قام يخطب لا يلتمس بها إلا رياء وسمعة، أوقفه الله عز وجل يوم القيامة موقف رياء وسمعة.
Imam Ahmad narrated it (16073) from Saeed bin Mansur. Abdullah said, "My father narrated it to us from him while he was alive." He said, "Hajar bin Harith Ghassani, from the people of Ramla, narrated to us from Abdullah bin Awf Kinani," who was a governor for Umar bin Abdul-Aziz over Ramla, that he witnessed Abdul-Malik bin Marwan say to Bashir bin Aqraba Juhani, on the day Amr bin Saeed bin As was killed, "O Abu Yaman, I am in need today of your words, so stand and speak." He said, then he mentioned it.Its isnad is hasan because of Abdullah bin Awf Kinani, from whom a number of narrators related, and Ibn Hibban mentioned him in Thiqat. He was a governor for Umar bin Abdul-Aziz, and there is nothing objectionable in his hadith. Someone like him has his hadith graded hasan when he has sound foundations, and this is one of them. The one who related from him, Hajar bin Harith Ghassani, was deemed trustworthy by Ibn Main, as mentioned in Suilat Ibn Mihraz (101).Bashir bin Aqraba, both he and his father had companionship with the Prophet, and most scholars of knowledge hold that his name was "Bishr bin Aqraba," which is more correct, as Bukhari said.With a similar meaning, it was narrated from Muaz bin Jabal, who said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'There is no servant who takes a stand in this world seeking reputation and showing off, except that Allah will make it known about him before all of creation on the Day of Resurrection.'"Bazzar narrated it (2657), and Tabarani in Kabir (20/119), both through the route of Safwan bin Amr, who said, "I heard Shurahbil bin Mishar narrating from Muaz bin Jabal," then he mentioned it.Shurahbil bin Mishar is Ansi. Ibn Hibban mentioned him in Thiqat, and no one else deemed him trustworthy. Ibn Hibban is known for authenticating those in whom no criticism has been found, and Bazzar found fault with it due to a break in the chain.As for Haythami, he graded it hasan in Majma al-Zawaid (10/223), relying on Ibn Hibban's authentication.
