Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَلِيَّ بْنَ زَيْدٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ بْنِ أَوْفَى عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ يُقَالُ لَهُ مَالِكٌ أَوْ ابْنُ مَالِكٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ أَيُّمَا مُسْلِمٍ ضَمَّ يَتِيمًا بَيْنَ أَبَوَيْنِ مُسْلِمَيْنِ إِلَى طَعَامِهِ وَشَرَابِهِ حَتَّى يَسْتَغْنِيَ وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ الْبَتَّةَ وَأَيُّمَا مُسْلِمٍ أَعْتَقَ رَقَبَةً أَوْ رَجُلًا مُسْلِمًا كَانَتْ فِكَاكَهُ مِنْ النَّارِ وَمَنْ أَدْرَكَ وَالِدَيْهِ أَوْ أَحَدَهُمَا فَدَخَلَ النَّارَ فَأَبْعَدَهُ اللَّهُ.
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Ja'far told us: Shu'bah told us, who said: I heard Ali ibn Zayd narrating from Zurarah ibn Awfa, from a man of his people called Malik or Ibn Malik, narrating from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), that he said: "Any Muslim who takes in an orphan whose parents were both Muslim, providing him food and drink until he becomes self-sufficient, Paradise becomes assured for him without doubt. And any Muslim who frees a slave, or a Muslim person, it will be his ransom from the Fire. And whoever finds his parents, or one of them, [still living] then enters the Fire, may Allah remove him far."
