حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ يَعْنِي الْوَاسِطِيَّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ يَحْيَى الْأَنْصَارِيُّ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ مَوْلَى بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ عَنْ خَادِمٍ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجُلٍ أَوْ امْرَأَةٍ قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِمَّا يَقُولُ ل
ِلْخَادِمِ أَلَكَ حَاجَةٌ قَالَ حَتَّى كَانَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ حَاجَتِي قَالَ وَمَا حَاجَتُكَ قَالَ حَاجَتِي أَنْ تَشْفَعَ لِي يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ قَالَ وَمَنْ دَلَّكَ عَلَى هَذَا قَالَ رَبِّي قَالَ إِمَّا لَا فَأَعِنِّي بِكَثْرَةِ السُّجُودِ

ʿAffān narrated to us: Khālid — meaning al-Wāsiṭī — narrated to us: ʿAmr ibn Yaḥyā al-Anṣārī narrated to us, from Ziyād ibn Abī Ziyād — the freed slave of Banū Makhzūm — from a servant of the Prophet ﷺ, a man or a woman, who said: the Prophet ﷺ used to say to the servant: 'Do you have a need?' Until one day the servant said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, my need!' He said: 'What is your need?' He said: 'My need is that you intercede for me on the Day of Resurrection.' He said: 'Who directed you to this?' He said: 'My Lord.' He said: 'Then help me with abundant prostration.'
