    Deliverance to A Muslim,
    Covering Up His Condition

    Hadith Twenty-Three

    The Exposition of the Immense Merit of Bringing
    Deliverance to A Muslim, Covering Up His Condition,
    Facilitating His Case and Helping Him, and the Immense
    Merit of Pursuing Knowledge and Gathering in Order to
    Recite Allah's Book and Study It Together


    It is narrated from Abu Hurayra (ra) that he said
    Allah's Messenger ﷺ said:

    "Whoever dispels one of the worldly cares of a
    believer, Allah (swt) shall dispel one of the cares
    of the Day of Judgment for him.

    "Whoever shields a Muslim, Allah (swt) shall shield
    him in the world and the hereafter.

    "Whoever facilitates something for someone in difficulty,
    Allah (swt) shall facilitate things for
    him in the world and the hereafter.

    "Allah (swt) ever provides help to His servant as
    long as His servant is providing help to his brother.

    "Whoever treads a path in which he pursues knowledge,
    Allah (swt) shall facilitate for him a path to
    Paradise.

    "No people gather in one of Allah's houses to recite Allah's Book
    and study it together except tranquility
    descends upon them, mercy envelops them, angels
    surround them, and Allah (swt) mentions them among
    those who are with Him.

    "And whoever is delayed by [scarcity of] deeds, his
    lineage shall in no way quicken him."

    Narrated by Muslim as well as al-Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud,
    Ibn Majah, Ahmad, and al-Darimi.
