حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْهِقْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ السَّکْسَکِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ عَنْ يَحْيَی بْنِ أَبِي کَثِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَبِيعَةَ بْنَ کَعْبٍ الْأَسْلَمِيَّ يَقُولُ کُنْتُ أَبِيتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ آتِيهِ بِوَضُوئِهِ وَبِحَاجَتِهِ فَقَالَ سَلْنِي فَقُلْتُ مُرَافَقَتَکَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ قَالَ أَوَ غَيْرَ ذَلِکَ قُلْتُ هُوَ ذَاکَ قَالَ فَأَعِنِّي عَلَی نَفْسِکَ بِکَثْرَةِ السُّجُودِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 1320
Narrated Rabiah bin Kab al-Aslami: I used to live with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ at night. I would bring water for his ablution and his need. He asked: Ask me. I said: Your company in Paradise. He said: Is there anything other than that ? I said: It is only that. He said: Help me for yourself by making prostrations abundantly.
