Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you well. From the Holy City of Makkah, a Sudanese listener, who indicated his name with the letters Ghayn, Ghayn, Ghayn. Our brother asks about several issues. He says: I read this saying: "Whoever helps his brother in his need, Allah will help him in his need." Is this a hadith, and what is its meaning? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
Yes, this is the meaning of the hadith, which is his saying (peace and blessings be upon him)
And Allah is engaged in helping the worshipper as long as the worshipper is engaged in helping his brother.والله في عون العبد ما كان العبد في عون أخيه
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 1425Sahih (Darussalam)
. So, cooperating to fulfill the needs of one another among Muslims is a prescribed matter, and there is a great reward in it, because whoever helps his brother in fulfilling his need, Allah the Exalted will help him, and the reward is of the same kind as the deed. And Allah the Exalted says
And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression.وَتَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْبِرِّ وَالتَّقْوَىٰ وَلَا تَعَاوَنُوا عَلَى الْإِثْمِ وَالْعُدْوَانِ
[Al-Ma'idah 5:2]
Cooperation among Muslims in what benefits them in their religion and their worldly affairs is a required and encouraged matter, and there is a great reward in it. Yes.
