أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عُثْمَانَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي زَيْدُ بْنُ أَرْطَاةَ الْفَزَارِيُّ ، عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا الدَّرْدَاءِ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " ابْغُونِي الضَّعِيفَ ، فَإِنَّكُمْ إِنَّمَا تُرْزَقُونَ ، وَتُنْصَرُونَ بِضُعَفَائِكُمْ " .

Benefits and Issues:
The worship and supplication of the weak, helpless, and destitute individuals, as well as other creatures, are characterized by sincerity.
They are generally free from ostentation (riya).
Thus, due to the blessing of their worship, supplication, and helplessness, Allah ‘azza wa jall bestows mercy upon others as well.
