حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ: كَانَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلٌ فِي بَعْضِ مَغَازِيهِ، فَأَبْلَى بَلَاءً حَسَنًا فَعَجِبَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ مِنْ بَلَائِهِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَمَا إِنَّهُ مِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ ". قُلْنَا: فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ. قَالَ: فَجَرَحَ الرَّجُلُ، فَلَمَّا اشْتَدَّتْ بِهِ الْجِرَاحُ وَضَعَ ذُبَابَ سَيْفِهِ بَيْنَ ثَدْيَيْهِ، ثُمَّ اتَّكَأَ عَلَيْهِ، فَأُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ: الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي قُلْتَ لَهُ مَا قُلْتَ، قَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ يَتَضَرَّبُ وَالسَّيْفُ بَيْنَ أَضْعَافِهِ. فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَعْمَلُ بِعَمَلِ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ فِيمَا يَبْدُوَ لِلنَّاسِ وَإِنَّهُ لَمِنْ أَهْلِ النَّارِ، وَإِنَّهُ لَيَعْمَلُ عَمَلَ أَهْلِ النَّارِ فِيمَا يَبْدُو لِلنَّاسِ وَإِنَّهُ لَمِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ " (١)، ،

English translation
It is narrated from Sahl (may Allah be pleased with him) that in one of the battles there was a man with the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) who performed remarkable feats of bravery on the battlefield. The Muslims were very pleased with him, but the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "This man is from the people of Hell." We said, "Even though he is in the path of Allah and with the Messenger of Allah?" Allah and His Messenger know best. During the battle, that man was wounded, and when the pain of the wound became severe, he placed his sword on his chest and thrust it through himself. Seeing this, a man came to the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) and reported, "The man about whom you made that statement—I saw him thrust his sword into his own body." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "A person may appear to people to be doing the deeds of the people of Paradise, but in reality, he is from the people of Hell. Similarly, a person may appear to people to be doing the deeds of the people of Hell, but in reality, he is from the people of Paradise."
