The Ruling on Assisting in Ablution Without a Valid Excuse

Question
Is it permissible for one person to pour water on another during ablution knowing that the latter is capable of pouring it on himself?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: Among the etiquettes of ablution is that a Muslim should not seek assistance from others in their ablution; neglecting this is contrary to what is preferable, and God knows best.
