Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) went to Sayyiduna Salman al-Farsi (may Allah be pleased with him), so he placed a cushion for Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). He said: O Abu Abdullah! What is this? He replied: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "When a believer's Muslim brother comes to him and he places a cushion for him as an honor and respect, Allah Almighty forgives his sins."
