Intercession and Those who will come out of the Fire (of Hell)

محمد بن أبي عمير (رفعه) عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام قال: يؤتى بعبد يوم القيامة ليست له حسنة فيقال له: أذكر وتذكر هل لك حسنة؟ قال: فيذكر فيقول: يا رب مالي من حسنة الا أن عبدك فلانا المؤمن مربى فطلب منى ماءا يتوضأ به فيصلى به فأعطيته قال: فيقول الله تبارك وتعالى: أدخلوا عبدي الجنة.
8.Muḥammad ibn Abī ʿUmayr attributed it to Abū ʿAbdillāh عليه السلام that he said, “A servant will be brought on the Day of Judgment having no good deed [in his record], so it will be said to him, ‘Remember and recollect, do you have any good deed?’ So he will [try to] recall and will say, ‘My Lord, I have no good deed except that Your believing servant so-and-so passed by [one day] and asked me for water so that he could perform ablution and pray, so I gave it to him.’ So Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, will say, ‘Admit My servant into Paradise.’”
