CHAPTER: Regarding intercession.
Abu Musa reported the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم as saying: Make intercession to me, you will be rewarded, for Allah decrees what he wishes by the tongue of his prophet.
Narrated Muawiyah: Make intercession, you will be rewarded, for I purposely delay a matter so that you intercede and then you are rewarded. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: If you make intercession, you will be rewarded.
A similar tradition has also been transmitted by Abu Musa from the prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم through a different chain of narrators.
