Judaism at least teaches that one should do good because it's a virtue.
No for rewards either in life or afterward.

According to the religious, the purpose of humanity is to praise God
because there is nothing God loves more than an endless 24/7 stream
of uninterrupted flattery. To my mind that makes God seem like a
small minded little twit, I'd expect something a bit less
mundane from an omniscient omnipotent being who created the universe,
however even if it's true it leaves open one question, does God ever
ask Himself what His purpose is?
