وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ دَاوُدَ، ثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ الرَّقَاشِيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ؓ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
تَخْرُجُ صُفُوفُ أَهْلِ النَّارِ، فَيَمُرُّ الرَّجُلُ بِالرَّجُلِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ، فَيَقُولُ: يَا فُلَانُ أَمَا تَعْرِفُنِي ؟ فَيَقُولُ: وَمَنْ أَنْتَ ؟ فَيَقُولُ: أَنَا الَّذِي اسْتَوْهَبْتَنِي وَضُوءًا فَوَهَبْتُ لَكَ، فَيَشْفَعُ لَهُ، فَيُشَفَّعُ فِيهِ، وَيَمُرُّ الرَّجُلُ بِالرَّجُلِ، فَيَقُولُ: يَا فُلَانُ أَمَا تَعْرِفُنِي ؟ فَيَقُولُ: وَمَنْ أَنْتَ ؟ قَالَ: أَمَا بَعَثْتَنِي فِي حَاجَةِ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَقَضَيْتُهَا لَكَ، فَيَشْفَعُ لَهُ، فَيُشَفَّعُ فِيهِ.

✧ The rows of the people of the Fire will come out, and a man will pass by a man from the people of Paradise and say: 'O so-and-so, do you not recognize me?' He will say: 'Who are you?' He will say: 'I am the one who asked you for water for ablution and you granted it to me.' So he will intercede for him, and his intercession will be accepted. And a man will pass by a man and say: 'O so-and-so, do you not recognize me?' He will say: 'Who are you?' He said: 'Did you not send me on such-and-such an errand and I fulfilled it for you?' So he will intercede for him, and his intercession will be accepted.
