7. Ahmad ibn Muhammad has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Isma‘il ibn Bazi’ from ‘Isma‘il ibn al-Sarraj from Sukayn ibn ‘Ammar from a man from our called Abu Ahmad who has said the following
“I was performing Tawaf with abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), with his hand in my hand that a man came by who needed me for something. I made a gesture to him with my hand to indicate that he should wait until I complete my Tawaf. Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), asked, ‘Who is he?’ I replied, ‘May Allah keep you well, he is a man who needs me for something.’ He (the Imam) then asked, ‘Is he a Muslim?’ I replied, ‘Yes, he is.’ He (the Imam) then told me to go with him to help in his needs. I then said, ‘May Allah keep you well, can I leave my Tawaf for his needs?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, you can do so.’ I then asked, ‘Even if it is obligatory Tawaf?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Yes, even if you are in an obligatory Tawaf.’ Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), then said, ‘Whoever walks for his Muslim brother in faith to help him in his needs, Allah writes for him one million good deeds and deletes one million of his sins and raises for him one million degree.’”
7ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْمَاعِيلَ السَّرَّاجِ عَنْ سُكَيْنِ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا يُكَنَّى أَبَا أَحْمَدَ قَالَ
كُنْتُ مَعَ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فِي الطَّوَافِ يَدُهُ فِي يَدِي إِذْ عَرَضَ لِي رَجُلٌ لَهُ إِلَيَّ حَاجَةٌ فَأَوْمَأْتُ إِلَيْهِ بِيَدِي فَقُلْتُ لَهُ كَمَا أَنْتَ حَتَّى أَفْرُغَ مِنْ طَوَافِي فَقَالَ لِي أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) مَا هَذَا قُلْتُ أَصْلَحَكَ الله رَجُلٌ جَاءَنِي فِي حَاجَةٍ فَقَالَ لِي مُسْلِمٌ هُوَ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَقَالَ لِي اذْهَبْ مَعَهُ فِي حَاجَتِهِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ أَصْلَحَكَ الله فَأَقْطَعُ الطَّوَافَ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ قُلْتُ وَإِنْ كُنْتُ فِي الْمَفْرُوضِ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَإِنْ كُنْتَ فِي الْمَفْرُوضِ قَالَ وَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) مَنْ مَشَى مَعَ أَخِيهِ الْمُسْلِمِ فِي حَاجَتِهِ كَتَبَ الله لَهُ أَلْفَ أَلْفِ حَسَنَةٍ وَمَحَا عَنْهُ أَلْفَ أَلْفِ سَيِّئَةٍ وَرَفَعَ لَهُ أَلْفَ أَلْفِ دَرَجَةٍ.
