It is narrated from Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: A man asked during the time of Prophethood, but the people did not give him anything.

And whoever establishes a bad practice and then it is adopted, he will bear its sin as well as the sins of those who follow it, while nothing will be diminished from their sins.

Then he returned to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and informed him about it. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“Whoever guides to a good deed, he will have a reward equal to that of the one who performs it.”

Upon hearing this, a man said: O Messenger of Allah! Shall I not guide him to a person who will provide him with a mount? The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Whoever guides to a good deed, he will have a reward equal to that of the one who performs it.
