A bedouin asked the Prophet, "A man may fight for the sake of booty, and another may fight so that
he may be mentioned by the people, and a third may fight to show his position (i.e. bravery); which of
these regarded as fighting in Allah's Cause?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "He who fights so that Allah's Word
(i.e. Islam) should be superior, fights for Allah's Cause."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 57, Hadith 35
