1139. Rabīʿah bin Kaʿb Al-Aslamī said: "I used to bring to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ water for Wudūʿ and serve him. He said: 'Ask of me.' I said: 'I want to be with you in Paradise.' He said: 'Is there anything else?' I said: 'That is all.' He said: 'Help me to fulfil your wish by prostrating a great deal.'" (Sahīh)
1138 - أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، عَنْ هِقْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ الدِّمَشْقِيِّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي رَبِيعَةُ بْنُ كَعْبٍ الْأَسْلَمِيُّ قَالَ: كُنْتُ آتِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِوَضُوئِهِ وَبِحَاجَتِهِ، فَقَالَ: «سَلْنِي»، قُلْتُ: مُرَافَقَتَكَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ، قَالَ: «أَوَ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ»، قُلْتُ: هُوَ ذَاكَ، قَالَ: «فَأَعِنِّي عَلَى نَفْسِكَ بِكَثْرَةِ السُّجُودِ»

We learn that reliance upon intercession and the supplications of others is not sufficient. On the contrary, one should himself face hardships so that he could deservedly earn commendation and rewards.
