Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said:
I heard the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) saying,
"The** first** to be judged on the Day of Resurrection will be a man who
had died as a martyr. He will be brought forward. Allah will remind
him of the favours He had bestowed upon him and the man will
acknowledge them.
Then He will ask him: `What did you do to express gratitude for it?
The man will reply: `I fought for Your Cause till I was martyred.
Allah will say: `You have lied. You fought so that people might call
you courageous; and they have done so.
Command will then be issued about him and he will be dragged on his
face and thrown into Hell.
Next a man who had acquired and imparted knowledge and read the Quran
will be brought forward, Allah will remind him of the favours He had
bestowed upon him and the man will acknowledge them.
Then He will ask him: `What did you do to express gratitude for it?
The man will reply: I acquired knowledge and taught it, and read the Quran for Your sake. Allah will say to him: You have lied. You
acquired knowledge so that people might call you a learned (man), and
you read the Quran so that they might call you a reciter, and they
have done so.
Command will then be issued about him, and he will be dragged on his
face and thrown into Hell.
Next a man whom Allah had made affluent and to whom Allah had given
plenty of wealth, will be brought forward, Allah will remind him of
the favours He had bestowed upon him and the man will acknowledge
them.
He will ask him: `What did you do to express gratitude for it?
The man will reply: `I did not neglect any of the ways You liked
wealth to be spend liberally for Your sake.
Allah will say to him: `You have lied. You did it so that people might
call you generous, and they have done so.
Command will then be issued about him and he will be dragged on his
face and thrown into Hell."
