سوءُ عاقِبَةِ أهلِ الرِّياءِ The Evil Outcome of Those Who Used to Show Off

14ـ قال رسولُ اللّه‏ِ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ): إنّ النارَ وأهلَها يَعِجُّونَ مِن أهلِ الرياءِ ، فقيلَ: يا رسولَ اللّه‏ِ ، وكيفَ تَعِجُّ النارُ ؟! قالَ: مِن حَرِّ النارِ التي يُعَذَّبُونَ بها.

14– The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'Verily the Hellfire and its inmates rage on account of those who used to show off.’ When asked how the Hellfire rages, he replied, 'It rages on account of the intense heat with which they are being punished.’[Mustadrak al-Wasail, v. 1, p. 107, no. 109]
 

15ـ الإمامُ الصّادقُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): يُجاءُ بعَبدٍ يَومَ القِيامَةِ قد صَلّى فيقولُ: يا ربِّ صَلَّيتُ ابتِغاءَ وَجهِكَ فيُقالُ لَهُ: بل صَلَّيتَ لِيُقالَ ما أحسَنَ صلاةَ (فلانٍ) ، اِذهَبُوا بِهِ إلى النارِ.

15– Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, 'On the Day of Resurrection, a servant who used to pray regularly will be brought forth, and he will beg, 'O Lord, I prayed in seeking Your pleasure', and he will be told, 'No, you prayed so that people would say how beautiful your prayer was. Take him to the Fire.’[Bihar al-Anwar, v. 72, p. 301, no. 44]
