عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ إِنِّي أُبْدِعَ بِي فَاحْمِلْنِي قَالَ مَا عِنْدِي مَا أَحْمِلُكَ عَلَيْهِ وَلَكِنْ ائْتِ فُلَانًا فَأَتَاهُ فَحَمَلَهُ فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ دَلَّ عَلَى خَيْرٍ فَلَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ فَاعِلِهِ
Sayyiduna Abu Mas’ud Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that a man came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: “My mount has become exhausted, so please provide me with a mount.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “I do not have a mount, but go to so-and-so, (he will provide you with a mount).” So he went to that man, and indeed he gave him a mount. Then he returned to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and informed him about it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Whoever guides to a good deed, he will have a reward equal to that of the one who performs it.”
