وَعَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنِ اسْتَعَاذَ مِنْكُمْ بِاللَّهِ فَأَعِيذُوهُ وَمَنْ سَأَلَ بِاللَّهِ فَأَعْطُوهُ وَمَنْ دَعَاكُمْ فَأَجِيبُوهُ وَمَنْ صَنَعَ إِلَيْكُمْ مَعْرُوفًا فَكَافِئُوهُ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَجِدُوا مَا تُكَافِئُوهُ فَادْعُوا لَهُ حَتَّى تُرَوْا أَنْ قَدْ كَافَأْتُمُوهُ» . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَأَبُو دَاوُد وَالنَّسَائِيّ
Ibn ‘Umar reported that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘If anyone seeks refuge with you in Allah’s name, grant him refuge; if anyone asks you in Allah’s name, give to him; if anyone invites you, accept the invitation; and if anyone does you a kindness, repay him. If you cannot find anything with which to repay him, then pray for him until you feel that you have repaid him.’ Ahmad, Abu Dawud, and al-Nasa’i transmitted it.
