[Machine] "A man said, 'O Prophet of Allah, I stand in different places seeking the countenance of Allah, and I love for my place to be seen.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not respond to him until the verse was revealed, 'So whoever would hope for the meeting with his Lord - let him do righteous work' (Quran, 18:110). Al-Dhahabi remained silent about it in his summary."  

الحاكم:٧٩٣٩أَخْبَرَنِي الْحَسَنُ بْنُ حَلِيمٍ الْمَرْوَزِيُّ أَنْبَأَ أَبُو الْمُوَجَّهِ أَنْبَأَ عَبْدَانُ أَنْبَأَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَنْبَأَ مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ عَنْ طَاوُسٍ قَالَ قَالَ

رَجُلٌ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَقِفُ الْمَوَاقِفَ أَبْتَغِي وَجْهَ اللَّهِ وَأُحِبُّ أَنْ يُرَى مَوْطِنِي قَالَ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى نَزَلَتْ {فَمَنْ كَانَ يَرْجُو لِقَاءَ رَبِّهِ فَلْيَعْمَلْ عَمَلًا صَالِحًا} [الكهف 110] سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص
