I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ along with two men. One of them testified the Shahada (faith declaration) and said, "O Messenger of Allah, we have come to assist you in some of your work." Then, the other man testified the Shahada as well. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said the same words as the first man. He ﷺ said, "Indeed, your brothers whom you seek are present with me." However, he did not seek their assistance in anything until he passed away.
