Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ وَاقِدٍ حَدَّثَنِي سِمَاكُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ مَنْ مَنَحَ مَنِيحَةً وَرِقًا أَوْ ذَهَبًا أَوْ سَقَى لَبَنًا أَوْ أَهْدَى زِقَاقًا فَهُوَ كَعَدْلِ رَقَبَةٍ.
English Translation
Zayd b. al-Hubab told us: Husayn b. Waqid told us: Simak b. Harb told me, from al-Nu'man b. Bashir, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: "Whoever grants a loan of silver or gold, or gives milk to drink, or gives a skin of milk as a gift, it is like freeing a slave."
