حديث أَبِي مُوسى رضي الله عنها قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، إِذَا جَاءَهُ السَّائِلُ، ⦗٢٠٣⦘ أَوْ طُلِبَتْ إِلَيْهِ حَاجَةٌ قَالَ: اشْفَعُوا تُؤْجَرُوا، وَيَقْضِي اللهُ عَلَى لِسَانِ نَبِيِّهِ ﷺ، مَا شَاءَ.
Abu Musa Narrated from:
Whenever a beggar came to Allâh's Messenger, or he was asked for something, he would intercede (and say to his companions), "Help and recommend him and you will receive the reward for it; and Allâh will bring about what He will through His Prophet's صلى الله عليه وسلم tongue." [1] ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 512, Vol. 2)
[1] The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم urged his companions to intercede with him on behalf of their Muslim brethren who were in need of something, or had some difficulties. He meant that he was ready to listen to their intercessions for good people, and that they would be rewarded for their intercession. Anyhow, the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم prohibited intercession for those who were sentenced to one of the punishments that were ordained by Allâh and could not be changed in any circumstances.
