question #3 Sahih al-Bukhari 5811, Book 77, Hadith 29 : What can be learned about the role of supplication in seeking divine favor from this narration?

I heard Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) saying “From among my followers, a group (o 70,000) will enter Paradise
without being asked for their accounts, Their faces will be shining like the moon.” ‘Ukasha bin
Muhsin Al-Asadi got up, lifting his covering sheet and said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) Invoke Allah for me
that He may include me with them.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said! “O Allah! Make him from them.” Then another
man from Al-Ansar got up and said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! Invoke Allah for me that He may include me
with them.” On that Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “‘Ukasha has anticipated you.”
