[Machine] One day, the Prophet of Allah ﷺ sat among a group of his companions. The Prophet of Allah ﷺ raised his hand and said, "Who will pledge allegiance to me?" He repeated this three times, and no one stood up except Thawban. Thawban said, "By my father and mother, we have already pledged allegiance to you once, and I will pledge allegiance to you a second time. Why should I pledge allegiance to you, O Messenger of Allah?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "To not ask the people for anything, and for you to have Paradise." Thawban then said, "O Messenger of Allah, if I pledge allegiance to you and do not ask the people for anything, will Paradise be mine?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Yes, if Allah wills." Thawban said, "No, by the One who sent you with the truth, I will not ask for anything as long as I remain in this world."  

جَلَسَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمًا فِي نَفَرٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَرَفَعَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ يَدَهُ فَقَالَ «مَنْ يُبَايِعُنِي؟» ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ فَلَمْ يَقُمْ إِلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا ثَوْبَانُ فَقَالَ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي قَدْ بَايَعْنَاكَ مَرَّةً وَأَنَا أُبَايِعُكَ الثَّانِيَةَ فَعَلَامَ أُبَايِعُكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ «عَلَى أَنْ لَا تَسْأَلُوا النَّاسَ شَيْئًا وَلَكُمِ الْجَنَّةَ» فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنْ أَنَا بَايَعْتُكَ وَلَمْ أَسْأَلِ النَّاسَ شَيْئًا فَلِيَ الْجَنَّةُ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ» قَالَ لَا وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ لَا أَسْأَلُ شَيْئًا مَا بَقِيتُ فِي الدُّنْيَا
