[Machine] The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said, "Whoever gives a gift of a leaf or a gift of milk or offers a drink at the watering place, he is like one who frees a slave. And whoever says 'There is no God but Allah, alone, without any partner, to Him belongs the kingdom and to Him is all praise, and He is capable of all things,' he is like one who frees a slave. He used to come to their side and stand beside them, and level their chests and shoulders and say, 'Do not differ, lest your hearts differ.' He used to say, 'Indeed, Allah and His angels send blessings upon the first rows.' And he used to say, 'Adorn the Quran with your voices.'"  

أحمد:١٨٥١٦حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ مُصَرِّفٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْسَجَةَ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ مَنَحَ مِنْحَةَ وَرِقٍ أَوْ مِنْحَةَ لَبَنٍ أَوْ هَدَى زُقَاقًا فَهُوَ كَعِتَاقِ نَسَمَةٍ وَمَنْ قَالَ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ الْحَمْدُ وَهُوَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ فَهُوَ كَعِتَاقِ نَسَمَةٍ قَالَ وَكَانَ يَأْتِي نَاحِيَةَ الصَّفِّ إِلَى نَاحِيَتِهِ يُسَوِّي صُدُورَهُمْ وَمَنَاكِبَهُمْ يَقُولُ لَا تَخْتَلِفُوا فَتَخْتَلِفَ قُلُوبُكُمْ قَالَ وَكَانَ يَقُولُ إِنَّ اللهَ وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى الصُّفُوفِ الْأُوَلِ وَكَانَ يَقُولُ زَيِّنُوا الْقُرْآنَ بِأَصْوَاتِكُمْ

And He is capable of all things,' ten times, for him is the reward of freeing a slave or a breath of life."

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever says 'There is no god but Allah, alone, without partner. His is the kingdom, and His is the praise, and He is able to do all things' or gives a gift or guides a person who is lost, it is as if he has freed a slave." Abu Abdur-Rahman said: "I heard my father say that Yahya bin Adam rarely mentioned anything to the people that I did not hear him mention, except for one time when he mentioned the name of Qanan. He said: 'He told us one day, "This is not from your door."'"

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ who said: "Whoever gives a mudd (a unit of measurement) of perfume or guides someone to a market or gives milk to a person, he will have the reward of freeing a slave or giving life to a dead person. And whoever says 'La ilaha illa Allah, wahdahu la sharika lah, lahu al-mulku wa lahu al-hamdu wa huwa 'ala kulli shay'in qadir' ten times, he will have the reward of freeing a slave or giving life to a dead person.
