"O 'Amr! Tell us a Hadith that you heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." He said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'Whoever develops one gray hair in the cause of Allah, Most High, it will be light for him on the Day of Resurrection. Whoever shoots an arrow in the cause of Allah, Most High, whether it reaches the enemy or not, it will be as if he freed a slave. Whoever frees a believing slave, it will be a ransom for him from the Fire, limb by limb.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3142)  

حَدِّثْنَا حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ شَابَ شَيْبَةً فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ كَانَتْ لَهُ نُورًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَمَنْ رَمَى بِسَهْمٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فَبَلَغَ الْعَدُوَّ أَوْ لَمْ يَبْلُغْ كَانَ لَهُ كَعِتْقِ رَقَبَةٍ وَمَنْ أَعْتَقَ رَقَبَةً مُؤْمِنَةً كَانَتْ فِدَاءَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ عُضْوًا بِعُضْوٍ»  

"I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'Whoever shoots an arrow in the cause of Allah and it hits the target, it will raise him one level in Paradise.' That day I shot sixteen arrows that hit their targets." He said: "And I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'Whoever shoots an arrow in the cause of Allah, it is equal to the reward of freeing a slave.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3143)  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ بَلَغَ سَهْمًا فَهُوَ لَهُ دَرَجَةٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ» فَبَلَغْتُ يَوْمَئِذٍ سِتَّةَ عَشَرَ سَهْمًا قَالَ وَسَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ رَمَى بِسَهْمٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فَهُوَ عِدْلُ مُحَرَّرٍ» مُخْتَصَرٌ  

"O Ka'b! Tell us a Hadith from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and be careful." He said: "I heard him say: 'Whoever develops one gray hair in Islam, in the cause of Allah, it will be light for him on the Day of Resurrection.'" He said to him: "Tell us about the Prophet ﷺ and be careful." He said: "I heard him say: 'Shoot, and whoever hits the enemy with an arrow, Allah will raise him one degree in status thereby.'" Ibn An-Nahhan said: 'O Messenger of Allah, what is a degree?' He said: 'It is not like the doorstep of your mother; [1] rather (the distance) between two degrees is (that if) a hundred years.'" [1] As explained after it; the degree of distance is greater than such a degree in this world. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3144)  

حَدِّثْنَا عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَاحْذَرْ قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ «مَنْ شَابَ شَيْبَةً فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ كَانَتْ لَهُ نُورًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ» فَقَالَ لَهُ حَدِّثْنَا عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَاحْذَرْ قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ «ارْمُوا مَنْ بَلَغَ الْعَدُوَّ بِسَهْمٍ رَفَعَهُ اللهُ بِهِ دَرَجَةً» قَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ النَّحَّامِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَمَا الدَّرَجَةُ؟ قَالَ «أَمَا إِنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ بِعَتَبَةٍ وَلَكِنْ مَا بَيْنَ الدَّرَجَتَيْنِ مِائَةُ عَامٍ» مُخْتَصَرٌ  

"I said: 'O 'Amr bin 'Abasah! Tell us a Hadith that you heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ without forgetting or omitting anything.' He said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Whoever shoots an arrow in the cause of Allah, and it reaches the enemy, whether it misses or hits, it will be as if he freed slave. Whoever frees a believing slave, that will be a ransom for him, limb by limb, from the Fire of Hell. Whoever develops a gray hair in the cause of Allah, it will be light for him on the Day of Resurrection." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3145)  

حَدِّثْنَا حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْسَ فِيهِ نِسْيَانٌ وَلَا تنْقُصُ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ رَمَى بِسَهْمٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فَبَلَغَ الْعَدُوَّ أَخْطَأَ أَوْ أَصَابَ كَانَ كَعِدْلِ رَقَبَةٍ وَمَنْ أَعْتَقَ رَقَبَةً مَسْلَمَةً كَانَ فِدَاءُ كُلِّ عُضْوٍ مِنْهُ عُضْوًا مِنْهُ مِنْ نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ وَمَنْ شَابَ شَيْبَةً فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ كَانَتْ لَهُ نُورًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ»  

"Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, will admit three people into Paradise for one arrow: The one who makes it, intending it to be used for a good cause, the one who shoots it, and one who passes it to him." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3146)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ اللهَ يُدْخِلُ ثَلَاثَةَ نَفَرٍ الْجَنَّةَ بِالسَّهْمِ الْوَاحِدِ صَانِعَهُ يَحْتَسِبُ فِي صَنْعَتِهِ الْخَيْرَ وَالرَّامِيَ بِهِ وَمُنْبِلَهُ»
