that his father said, "Whenever a beggar came to Messenger of Allah ﷺ or he was asked for something, he used to say (to his companions), "Help and recommend him and you will receive the reward for it; and Allah will bring about what He will through His Prophet's tongue."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا جَاءَهُ السَّائِلُ أَوْ طُلِبَتْ إِلَيْهِ حَاجَةٌ قَالَ اشْفَعُوا تُؤْجَرُوا وَيَقْضِي اللَّهُ عَلَى لِسَانِ نَبِيِّهِ ﷺ مَا شَاءَ  

Whenever a beggar or a person in need of something came to the Prophet ﷺ , he used to say (to his companions), "Intercede (for him) and you will be rewarded for that, and Allah will fulfill what He will through His Apostle's tongue."  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا أَتَاهُ السَّائِلُ وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ جَاءَهُ السَّائِلُ أَوْ صَاحِبُ الْحَاجَةِ قَالَ اشْفَعُوا فَلْتُؤْجَرُوا وَيَقْضِي اللَّهُ عَلَى لِسَانِ رَسُولِهِ مَا شَاءَ  

Make a recommendation for him, and you would get the reward. Allah, however, gives the verdict through the tongue of His Apostle what He likes most.  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا أَتَاهُ طَالِبُ حَاجَةٍ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى جُلَسَائِهِ فَقَالَ اشْفَعُوا فَلْتُؤْجَرُوا وَلْيَقْضِ اللَّهُ عَلَى لِسَانِ نَبِيِّهِ مَا أَحَبَّ  

Make intercession to me, you will be rewarded, for Allah decrees what he wishes by the tongue of his prophet. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 5131)   

جَاءَ سَائِلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اشْفَعُوا فَلْتُؤْجَرُوا وَلْيَقْضِ اللهُ عَلَى لِسَانِ نَبِيِّهِ مَا شَاءَ
