[Machine] We besieged the fortress or palace of Ta'if with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He said, "Whoever reaches the enemy's line with an arrow in the cause of Allah will have a rank in Paradise." That day, I shot sixteen arrows. Whoever shoots an arrow in the cause of Allah will have a justly freed slave as his share. Whoever is struck with white hair in the cause of Allah will have a light on the Day of Resurrection. And whoever frees a Muslim slave, Allah will make every bone from his bones a bone from the fire. And whoever frees a Muslim woman, Allah will make every bone from her bones a bone from the fire.  

حَاصَرْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حِصْنَ الطَّائِفِ أَوْ قَصْرَ الطَّائِفِ فَقَالَ مَنْ بَلَغَ بِسَهْمٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ ﷻ فَلَهُ دَرَجَةٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ فَبَلَغْتُ يَوْمَئِذٍ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ سَهْمًا وَمَنْ رَمَى بِسَهْمٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ ﷻ فَهُوَ لَهُ عِدْلُ مُحَرَّرٍ وَمَنْ أَصَابَهُ شَيْبٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ ﷻ فَهُوَ لَهُ نُورٌ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَأَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ أَعْتَقَ رَجُلًا مُسْلِمًا جَعَلَ اللهُ ﷻ وِقَاءَ كُلِّ عَظْمٍ مِنْ عِظَامِهِ عَظْمًا مِنْ عِظَامِ مُحَرِّرِهِ مِنَ النَّارِ وَأَيُّمَا امْرَأَةٍ مُسْلِمَةٍ أَعْتَقَتْ امْرَأَةً مُسْلِمَةً فَإِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ جَاعِلٌ وِقَاءَ كُلِّ عَظْمٍ مِنْ عِظَامِهَا عَظْمًا مِنْ عِظَامِ مُحَرِّرِهَا مِنَ النَّارِ  

[Machine] We surrounded the fortress of Ta'if with the Prophet ﷺ, and I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: "Whoever throws an arrow for the sake of Allah and hits the target, he will have a place in Paradise." A man then said, "O Prophet of Allah, if I throw an arrow and hit the target, will I have a place in Paradise?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "Throw it." So he threw and hit the target. The Prophet ﷺ said, "He will have sixteen arrows on that day." Then he mentioned its meaning.  

حَاصَرْنَا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ حِصْنَ الطَّائِفِ فَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَنْ رَمَى بِسَهْمٍ فِيسَبِيلِ اللهِ فَبَلَغَهُ فَلَهُ دَرَجَةٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ إِنْ رَمَيْتُ فَبَلَغْتُ فَلِي دَرَجَةٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ؟ قَالَ فَرَمَى فَبَلَغَ قَالَ فَبَلَغْتُ يَوْمَئِذٍ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ سَهْمًا فَذَكَرَ مَعْنَاهُ
