On Account of the Weak Among You
March 17, 2008 by Abdur Rahman
Peace, one and all…
‘Mus’ab ibn Sa’d ibn Abi Waqqas said, “Sa’d thought that he had preference over those below him and the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, ‘Are you given victory and provision except on account of the weak among you?’”
(Recorded by Imam al-Bukhari, and Imam al-Nawawi, Riyadh al-Salihin no.271)
‘Abu’d-Darda’ ‘Umaymir said, “I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, ‘Help me in seeking out the weak. They are supported. You are provided for on account of the weak among you.”
(Recorded by Imam Abu Dawud, and Imam al-Nawawi, Riyadh al-Salihin no.272)
Ma’as salama,
Abdur Rahman
