Hadith #18
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ وَعَفَّانُ قَالَا ثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ عَفَّانُ فِي حَدِيثِهِ أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ بْنِ أَوْفَى عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الْقُشَيْرِيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ مَنْ أَعْتَقَ رَقَبَةً مُسْلِمَةً فَهِيَ فِدَاؤُهُ مِنْ
النَّارِ قَالَ عَفَّانُ مَكَانَ كُلِّ عَظْمٍ مِنْ عِظَامِ مُحَرِّرِهِ بِعَظْمٍ مِنْ عِظَامِهِ وَمَنْ أَدْرَكَ أَحَدَ وَالِدَيْهِ ثُمَّ لَمْ يُغْفَرْ لَهُ فَأَبْعَدَهُ اللَّهُ وَمَنْ ضَمَّ يَتِيمًا مِنْ بَيْنِ أَبَوَيْنِ مُسْلِمَيْنِ قَالَ عَفَّانُ إِلَى طَعَامِهِ وَشَرَابِهِ حَتَّى يُغْنِيَهُ اللَّهُ وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ

Bahz and ʿAffān narrated to us, they said: Ḥammād ibn Salamah narrated to us — ʿAffān said in his narration: ʿAlī ibn Zayd informed us — from Zurārah ibn Awfā, from Mālik ibn ʿAmr al-Qushayrī رضي الله عنه who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Whoever frees a Muslim slave, that is his ransom from the Fire' — ʿAffān said: 'each bone of the emancipator redeemed by a bone of the freed person — and whoever reaches one of his parents and is then not forgiven, may Allah cast him far away. And whoever shelters an orphan from between Muslim parents' — ʿAffān said: 'providing him food and drink until Allah enriches him, Paradise becomes guaranteed for him.'
