Arabic hadith text

وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَأَبُو كُرَيْبٍ وَابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ - وَاللَّفْظُ لأَبِي كُرَيْبٍ - قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي عَمْرٍو الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ إِنِّي أُبْدِعَ بِي فَاحْمِلْنِي فَقَالَ ‏"‏ مَا عِنْدِي ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنَا أَدُلُّهُ عَلَى مَنْ يَحْمِلُهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ مَنْ دَلَّ عَلَى خَيْرٍ فَلَهُ مِثْلُ أَجْرِ فَاعِلِهِ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah, Abu Kurayb, and Ibn Abi Umar said—the wording is that of Abu Kurayb: Abu Muawiyah narrated to us, from al-Amash, from Abu Amr al-Shaybani, from Abu Masud al-Ansari, who said: A man came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and said, “My mount has become disabled, so provide me with a mount.” He replied, “I have none.” A man said, “Messenger of Allah, I can direct him to someone who will provide him with a mount.” The Messenger of Allah said: “Whoever guides someone to good receives a reward like that of the person who does it.”
