أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ هِقْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ الدِّمَشْقِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الأَوْزَاعِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي رَبِيعَةُ بْنُ كَعْبٍ الأَسْلَمِيُّ قَالَ
كُنْتُ آتِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِوَضُوئِهِ وَبِحَاجَتِهِ فَقَالَ سَلْنِي قُلْتُ مُرَافَقَتَكَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ قَالَ أَوَغَيْرَ ذَلِكَ قُلْتُ هُوَ ذَاكَ قَالَ فَأَعِنِّي عَلَى نَفْسِكَ بِكَثْرَةِ السُّجُودِ
