20. The Book of Emancipating Slaves
٢٠۔ كتاب العتق
The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever frees a Muslim slave, Allah will save all the parts of his body from the (Hell) Fire as he has freed the body-parts of the slave." Saʿid bin Marjana said that he narrated that Hadith to ʿAli bin Al-Husain and he freed his slave for whom ʿAbdullah bin Jaʿfar had offered him ten thousand Dirhams or one-thousand Dinars.
