[Machine] Narrated by Amr, I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "Whoever frees a Muslim slave, his emancipation will be his ransom from the Fire on the Day of Resurrection, limb by limb. And whoever bears white hair in the cause of Allah, it will be a light for him on the Day of Resurrection. And whoever shoots an arrow in the cause of Allah, and it reaches its target or misses, it will be for him as if he freed a slave from the descendants of Isma'il."

[Machine] Shurahbil bin al-Simt was the governor of Hims appointed by 'Amr bin 'Abasa al-Sulami, the companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. "O Abu Najih, narrate to us a hadith that you heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, which contains no addition or omission." Abu Najih said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Whoever frees a believing slave, Allah will free for each of his organs a part from the Fire. And whoever shoots an arrow in the cause of Allah, and it reaches its target, it will be for him a reward equivalent to that of freeing a slave. And whoever goes out in the cause of Allah and returns with white hairs [due to old age or ailing], it will be a light for him on the Day of Resurrection."
