Advice for the one whose main concern is fame in his specialization

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a question from the student Fawaz Ashi from the College of Media and Communication. I mention the name if it is written down; if it is not written down, I simply read the question. May Allah reward Your Eminence. Then, your advice to some students whose greatest concern in their specialization is only fame, forgetting their great role in defending their religion, their homeland, and their Muslim brothers.

Answer:
This is a matter between them and Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He); no one knows intentions except Allah. However, they must be sincere in their intention for Allah (Mighty and Majestic), and they must know that Allah is aware of their intentions, their purposes, and their hearts. So, they must be sincere in their intention for Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Whoever is sincere in his intention for Allah, Allah will guide him and help him. Whoever is not sincere in his intention for Allah and his concern is something else, Allah will leave him to what he desires and will cause him to fail. There is no power and no strength except by Allah. Yes.
