[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ , he said: "Whoever has a slave girl and teaches her, and behaves well towards her, and teaches her good manners, and then frees her and marries her, he will have two rewards. And a servant who fulfills the rights of Allah (may He be exalted) and the rights of his slaves, and a man from the people of the Book who believes in what Jesus brought and what Muhammad ﷺ brought, he will have two rewards."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ أَمَةٌ فَعَلَّمَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَعْلِيمَهَا وَأَدَّبَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَأْدِيبَهَا وَأَعْتَقَهَا فَتَزَوَّجَهَا فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ وَعَبْدٌ أَدَّى حَقَّ اللهِ ﷻ وَحَقَّ مَوَالِيهِ وَرَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ آمَنَ بِمَا جَاءَ بِهِ عِيسَى وَمَا جَاءَ بِهِ مُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said "Three persons will have a double reward: 1. A Person from the people of the scriptures who believed in his prophet (Jesus or Moses) and then believed in the Prophet ﷺ Muhammad (i .e. has embraced Islam). 2. A slave who discharges his duties to Allah and his master. 3. A master of a woman-slave who teaches her good manners and educates her in the best possible way (the religion) and manumits her and then marries her."
