[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have been wronged, so help me." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "I do not have anything to help you with." Then, the man said, "Shall I guide you, O Messenger of Allah, to someone who can help me?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever guides someone to good, will have a reward similar to the one who does it." Abu Abdullah said in his narration, "Abu Muawiyah said, 'I have been wronged,' meaning he was killed."
