Giving interest money without the intention of receiving reward

Q: I have had some interest money which I gave to a paraplegic in a wheelchair at our local mosque. I didn’t tell him it was interest. I did not expect any sawaab for this. He made so much of dua for me and I kept saying آمين. 

Is his dua acceptable and is my saying آمين acceptable.

A: It was not wrong for you to say aameen since you did not have the niyyat of thawaab.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
