‏ ‏حَدَّثَنَا ‏ ‏هُشَيْمٌ ‏ ‏قَالَ ‏ ‏عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ‏ ‏أَخْبَرَنَا عَنْ ‏ ‏زُرَارَةَ بْنِ أَوْفَى ‏ ‏عَنْ ‏ ‏مَالِكِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ ‏ ‏رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ ‏ ‏أَنَّهُ ‏ ‏سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ‏ ‏صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ‏ ‏يَقُولُ ‏ ‏مَنْ ضَمَّ يَتِيمًا بَيْنَ أَبَوَيْنِ مُسْلِمَيْنِ إِلَى طَعَامِهِ وَشَرَابِهِ حَتَّى يَسْتَغْنِيَ عَنْهُ وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ ‏ ‏الْبَتَّةَ ‏ ‏وَمَنْ أَعْتَقَ امْرَأً مُسْلِمًا كَانَ فِكَاكَهُ مِنْ النَّارِ ‏ ‏يُجْزَى بِكُلِّ عُضْوٍ مِنْهُ عُضْوًا مِنْهُ ‏

English Translation

It was narrated from Malik ibn al-Harith, a man from among them, that he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'Whoever takes in an orphan between two Muslim parents and includes him in his food and drink until he becomes self-sufficient, Paradise is assured for him without question. And whoever frees a Muslim man, that will be his redemption from the Fire — each limb redeemed for a limb.'
