2895. It was narrated from Safwān bin 'Abdullāh bin Safwān said that he was married to a daughter of Abu Dardā'. He came to her and found Umm Dardā' there, but he did not find Abu Dardā'. She said to him: "Do you intend to perform Hajj this year?" He said: "Yes." She said: "Pray to Allāh for us to grant us goodness, for the Prophet ﷺ used to say: The supplication of a man for his brother in his absence will be
answered. By his head there is an angel who says Āmin to his supplication, and every time he prays for his brother, he says: "Āmin, and the same for you." He said: "Then I went out to the marketplace where I met Abu Dardā', and he told me something similar from the Prophet ﷺ." (Sahih)
