Sahih Muslim 2485a (Book 44, Hadith 214) #13465
Encouragement from the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) encouraged Hassan to reply on his behalf and promised Allah's help with Ruh-ul-Qudus.

Abu Huraira reported that 'Umar happened to pass by Hassan as he was reciting verses in the mosque. He (Hadrat 'Umar) looked towards him (meaningfully), whereupon he (gassing) said: I used to recite (verses) when one better than you (the Holy Prophet) had been present (here). He then looked towards Abu Huraira and said to him: I adjure you by Allah (to tell) if you had not heard Allah's Messenger as saying: (Hassan), give a reply on my behalf; Allah I help him with Ruh-ul-Qudus. He (Abu Huraira) said: By Allah, it is so (i. e. the Prophet actually said these words).
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ، وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، كُلُّهُمْ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، قَالَ عَمْرٌو حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ، مَرَّ بِحَسَّانَ وَهُوَ يُنْشِدُ الشِّعْرَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَلَحَظَ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ قَدْ كُنْتُ أُنْشِدُ وَفِيهِ مَنْ هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنْكَ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ إِلَى أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ فَقَالَ أَنْشُدُكَ اللَّهَ أَسَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ أَجِبْ عَنِّي اللَّهُمَّ أَيِّدْهُ بِرُوحِ الْقُدُسِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ نَعَمْ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's encouragement of Hassan when he was reciting verses in the mosque. Umar happened to pass by and looked at him meaningfully, prompting Hassan to say that he used to recite verses when someone better than Umar was present. Umar then asked Abu Huraira if he had heard the Prophet saying something, which Abu Huraira confirmed. The Prophet had said "give a reply on my behalf; Allah I help him with Ruh-ul-Qudus". This shows us that even though we may not be as knowledgeable or experienced as others, we should still have confidence in ourselves and trust in Allah's help. We should also take comfort in knowing that our beloved prophet is always looking out for us and encouraging us no matter what situation we are in.
