In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Imam Al-Bukhari, may Allah have mercy upon him, said:

Chapter: Avoiding the use of tricks. And everybody will get the reward according to his intention in Iman (belief) and other than it.

Umar Ibn Al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, said that the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said, “The reward of deeds depends upon the intentions, and every person will get the reward according to what he intended. So, whoever emigrates for Allah and His Messenger, then his emigration will be for Allah and His Messenger, and whoever emigrates to take a worldly benefit or for a woman to marry, then his emigration will be for what he emigrated for”. [Al-Bukhari Number 6953]

Imam Abdul Azeez Bin Baz, may Allah have mercy upon him, said, “There is no place for trickery in Ibaadaat (i.e. acts of worship) nor in Mu’aamalaat (i.e. mutual dealings). Thus, it is obligatory to approach matters through their appropriate paths.
