📖Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2658
Narrated ‘Abdul-Malik bin ‘Umair: from ‘Abdur-Rahman bin ‘Abdullah bin Mas’ud that he narrated from his father, from the Prophet (ﷺ) who said: “May Allah beautify a man who hears a saying of mine, so he understands it, remembers it, and conveys it. Perhaps he carries the Fiqh to one who has more understanding than him. There are three with which the heart of a Muslim shall not be deceived. Sincerity in deeds for Allah, giving Nasihah to the A’immah of Muslims, and sticking to the Jama’ah. For indeed the call is protected from behind them.”

  • This hadith narrated by ‘Abdur-Rahman bin ‘Abdullah bin Mas’ud states that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) prayed for the person who hears his sayings, understands them, remembers them, and passes them on to others.
