Did Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) asking Yazid al-Jurashi for supplication stem from humility?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him and grant him satisfaction) was a Companion, and Yazid al-Jurashi was from the generation of the Tabi'un. Does this imply that Yazid is superior to Mu'awiyah, or was Mu'awiyah's action an act of humility (may Allah be pleased with him)? Yazid was among the righteous and the God-fearing, so they asked him to make supplication.

Answer:
Yes, and they believe, and the one who believes is like the one who makes supplication. Yes.
