Chapter 1 · Revelationكَيْفَ كَانَ بَدْءُ الْوَحْىِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم
How the revelation to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ began
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ " إِنَّمَا الأَعْمَالُ بِالنِّيَّاتِ، وَإِنَّمَا لِكُلِّ امْرِئٍ مَا نَوَى، فَمَنْ كَانَتْ هِجْرَتُهُ إِلَى دُنْيَا يُصِيبُهَا أَوْ إِلَى امْرَأَةٍ يَنْكِحُهَا فَهِجْرَتُهُ إِلَى مَا هَاجَرَ إِلَيْهِ ".

حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الأَنْصَارِيُّ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّيْمِيُّ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنَ وَقَّاصٍ اللَّيْثِيَّ، يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ قَالَ
Translation
Umar ibn al-Khattab reported: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: “Actions are only according to intentions, and every person shall have only what he intended. So whoever's emigration (hijrah) was for a worldly gain he seeks to attain, or for a woman he seeks to marry, his emigration is for that for which he emigrated.”

Umar ibn al-Chattab berichtete: Ich hörte den Gesandten Allahs ﷺ sagen: „Die Taten sind nur gemäß den Absichten, und jedem Menschen gehört nur das, was er beabsichtigt hat. Wessen Auswanderung (Hidschra) also einem weltlichen Gut galt, das er erlangen will, oder einer Frau, die er heiraten will, dessen Auswanderung gilt dem, wofür er ausgewandert ist.“

Ömer b. Hattâb (r.a.) şöyle rivayet etti: Resûlullah'ı ﷺ şöyle buyururken işittim: “Ameller ancak niyetlere göredir. Herkese ancak niyet ettiği şey vardır. Kimin hicreti elde edeceği bir dünyalığa veya evleneceği bir kadına ise, onun hicreti de hicret ettiği şeyedir.”
