Riyad as-Salihin: Book 17, Hadith 109

Jundub (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “He who so acts to show off, Allah will disgrace him on the Day of Resurrection, and he who does good deeds so that people (may hold him in high esteem), Allah will expose his hidden evil intentions before the people on the Day of Resurrection.”.

وعن جُندب بن عبد الله بن سفيان رضي الله عنه قال‏:‏ قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏:‏ ‏”‏من سمَّع سمَّع الله به، ومن يرائي الله يرائي به‏”‏ ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم أيضًا من رواية ابن عباس رضي الله عنه‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
‏”‏سمَّع‏”‏ بتشديد الميم، ومعناه‏:‏ أظهر عمله للناس رياء ‏”‏ سمَّع الله به‏”‏ أي فضحه يوم القيامة، ومعنى‏:‏ ‏”‏ من راءى‏”‏ أي‏:‏ من أظهر للناس العمل الصالح ليعظم عندهم ‏”‏راءى الله به‏”‏ أي‏:‏ أظهر سريرته على رءوس الخلائق‏.‏
