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."

رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «ثَلاَثَةٌ لَهُمْ أَجْرَانِ: (١) رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ آمَنَ بِنَبِيِّهِ وَآمَنَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ، (٢) وَالْعَبْدُ الْمَمْلُوكُ إِذَا أَدَّى حَقَّ اللَّهِ وَحَقَّ مَوَالِيهِ، (٣) وَرَجُلٌ كَانَتْ عِنْدَهُ أَمَةٌ (يَطَؤُهَا) فَأَدَّبَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَأْدِيبَهَا وَعَلَّمَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَعْلِيمَهَا ثُمَّ أَعْتَقَهَا فَتَزَوَّجَهَا فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ۔»

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "He who has a slave-girl and educates and treats her nicely and then manumits and marries her, will get a double reward."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ جَارِيَةٌ فَعَالَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ إِلَيْهَا ثُمَّ أَعْتَقَهَا وَتَزَوَّجَهَا كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرَانِ

The Prophet ﷺ said, "He who has a slave-girl and teaches her good manners and improves her education and then manumits and marries her, will get a double reward; and any slave who observes Allah's right and his master's right will get a double reward."

عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى الأَشْعَرِيِّ ؓ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ كَانَتْ لَهُ جَارِيَةٌ فَأَدَّبَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَأْدِيبَهَا وَأَعْتَقَهَا وَتَزَوَّجَهَا فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ وَأَيُّمَا عَبْدٍ أَدَّى حَقَّ اللَّهِ وَحَقَّ مَوَالِيهِ فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ

The Prophet ﷺ said, "Three persons will get their reward twice. (One is) a person who has a slave girl and he educates her properly and teaches her good manners properly (without violence) and then manumits and marries her. Such a person will get a double reward. (Another is) a believer from the people of the scriptures who has been a true believer and then he believes in the Prophet ﷺ (Muhammad). Such a person will get a double reward. (The third is) a slave who observes Allah's Rights and Obligations and is sincere to his master."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ ثَلاَثَةٌ يُؤْتَوْنَ أَجْرَهُمْ مَرَّتَيْنِ الرَّجُلُ تَكُونُ لَهُ الأَمَةُ فَيُعَلِّمُهَا فَيُحْسِنُ تَعْلِيمَهَا وَيُؤَدِّبُهَا فَيُحْسِنُ أَدَبَهَا ثُمَّ يُعْتِقُهَا فَيَتَزَوَّجُهَا فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ وَمُؤْمِنُ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ الَّذِي كَانَ مُؤْمِنًا ثُمَّ آمَنَ بِالنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ وَالْعَبْدُ الَّذِي يُؤَدِّي حَقَّ اللَّهِ وَيَنْصَحُ لِسَيِّدِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ الشَّعْبِيُّ وَأَعْطَيْتُكَهَا بِغَيْرِ شَىْءٍ وَقَدْ كَانَ الرَّجُلُ يَرْحَلُ فِي أَهْوَنَ مِنْهَا إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ

Abu Dawud reported the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ as saying “Anyone who sets his slave girl free and then marries her, will have a double reward.”

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنْ أَعْتَقَ جَارِيَتَهُ وَتَزَوَّجَهَا كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرَانِ

"The Messenger of Allah said: 'There are three who will be given a twofold reward: A man who has a slave woman whom he disciplines and disciplines her well, and teaches and teaches her well, then he manumits her and marries her; a slave who fulfills his duty toward Allah and toward his masters; and a believer from among the People of the Book.'"

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثَلاَثَةٌ يُؤْتَوْنَ أَجْرَهُمْ مَرَّتَيْنِ رَجُلٌ كَانَتْ لَهُ أَمَةٌ فَأَدَّبَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ أَدَبَهَا وَعَلَّمَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَعْلِيمَهَا ثُمَّ أَعْتَقَهَا وَتَزَوَّجَهَا وَعَبْدٌ يُؤَدِّي حَقَّ اللَّهِ وَحَقَّ مَوَالِيهِ وَمُؤْمِنُ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ

'Whoever has a slave woman and teaches her good manners and educates her, then sets her free and marries her, will have two rewards. Any man from among the People of the Book who believed in his Prophet and believed in Muhammad will have two rewards. Any slave who does his duty towards Allah and towards his masters will have two rewards.” (Sahih)(one of the narrators) Salih said: “Sha'bi said: 'I have given this (Hadith) to you for little effort on your part. A rider would travel to Al-Madinah for less than this.' ”

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ جَارِيَةٌ فَأَدَّبَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ أَدَبَهَا وَعَلَّمَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَعْلِيمَهَا ثُمَّ أَعْتَقَهَا وَتَزَوَّجَهَا فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ وَأَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ آمَنَ بِنَبِيِّهِ وَآمَنَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ وَأَيُّمَا عَبْدٍ مَمْلُوكٍ أَدَّى حَقَّ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ وَحَقَّ مَوَالِيهِ فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ قَالَ صَالِحٌ قَالَ الشَّعْبِيُّ قَدْ أَعْطَيْتُكَهَا بِغَيْرِ شَىْءٍ إِنْ كَانَ الرَّاكِبُ لَيَرْكَبُ فِيمَا دُونَهَا إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ

[AI] 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

Abu Dawud reported the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ as saying “Anyone who sets his slave girl free and then marries her, will have a double reward.” (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2053)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ جَارِيَةٌ فَأَعْتَقَهَا وَتَزَوَّجَهَا كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرَانِ

[AI] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ , he said: "There are three types of people who will receive their rewards twice. A man who had a slave girl and he educated her and treated her well, and then he freed her and married her. And a slave who fulfilled the rights of his Lord and his master. And a man who believed in his book and in Muhammad ﷺ ." Ash-Sha'abi said to me, "Take it without any condition, even if you have to travel all the way to Kerman, it will be easy for you."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ ثَلَاثَةٌ يُؤْتَوْنَ أُجُورَهُمْ مَرَّتَيْنِ رَجُلٌ كَانَتْ لَهُ أَمَةٌ فَأَدَّبَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَأْدِيبَهَا وَعَلَّمَهَافَأَحْسَنَ تَعْلِيمَهَا ثُمَّ أَعْتَقَهَا فَتَزَوَّجَهَا وَمَمْلُوكٌ أَعْطَى حَقَّ رَبِّهِ ﷻ وَحَقَّ مَوَالِيهِ وَرَجُلٌ آمَنَ بِكِتَابِهِ وَبِمُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ قَالَ قَالَ لِي الشَّعْبِيُّ خُذْهَا بِغَيْرِ شَيْءٍ وَلَوْ سِرْتَ فِيهَا إِلَى كَرْمَانَ لَكَانَ ذَلِكَ يَسِيرًا

[AI] The Prophet ﷺ said, "There are three individuals who will be rewarded twice: a man who believed in the first and the last books (revealed by Allah), a man who had a slave girl and he educated her and treated her kindly, then he freed her and married her, and a slave who worships his Lord excellently and sincerely advises his master."

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ثَلَاثَةٌ يُؤْتَوْنَ أَجْرَهُمْ مَرَّتَيْنِ رَجُلٌ آمَنَ بِالْكِتَابِ الْأَوَّلِ وَالْكِتَابِ الْآخِرِ وَرَجُلٌ لَهُ أَمَةٌ فَأَدَّبَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَأْدِيبَهَا ثُمَّ أَعْتَقَهَا وَتَزَوَّجَهَا وَعَبْدٌ مَمْلُوكٌ أَحْسَنَ عِبَادَةَ رَبِّهِ وَنَصَحَ لِسَيِّدِهِ أَوْ كَمَا قَالَ

'Whoever has a slave woman and teaches her good manners and educates her, then sets her free and marries her, will have two rewards. Any man from among the People of the Book who believed in his Prophet and believed in Muhammad will have two rewards. Any slave who does his duty towards Allah and towards his masters will have two rewards.” (Sahih)(one of the narrators) Salih said: “Sha'bi said: 'I have given this (Hadith) to you for little effort on your part. A rider would travel to Al-Madinah for less than this.' ” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1956)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْكَانَتْ لَهُ جَارِيَةٌ فَأَدَّبَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ أَدَبَهَا وَعَلَّمَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَعْلِيمَهَا ثُمَّ أَعْتَقَهَا وَتَزَوَّجَهَا فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ وَأَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ آمَنَ بِنَبِيِّهِ وَآمَنَ بِمُحَمَّدٍ فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ وَأَيُّمَا عَبْدٍ مَمْلُوكٍ أَدَّى حَقَّ اللهِ ﷻ عَلَيْهِ وَحَقَّ مَوَالِيهِ فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ

قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَنْ كَانَتْ عِنْدَهُ جَارِيَةٌ فَعَالَهَا وَأَحْسَنَ إِلَيْهَا ثُمَّ أَعْتَقَهَا وَتَزَوَّجَهَا فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There are four who will receive their rewards twice: the wives of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , a person from the People of the Book who embraces Islam, a man who has a slave girl whom he likes and then frees her and marries her, and a servant who fulfills the rights of Allah and the rights of his master."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَرْبَعَةٌ يُؤْتَوْنَ أُجُورَهُمْ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَزْوَاجُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَنْ أَسْلَمَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ وَرَجُلٌ كَانَتْ عِنْدَهُ أَمَةٌ فَأَعْجَبَتْهُ فَأَعْتَقَهَا ثُمَّ تَزَوَّجَهَا وَعَبْدٌ مَمْلُوكٌ أَدَّى حَقَّ اللهِ وَحَقَّ سَادَتِهِ

"The Messenger of Allah said: 'There are three who will be given a twofold reward: A man who has a slave woman whom he disciplines and disciplines her well, and teaches and teaches her well, then he manumits her and marries her; a slave who fulfills his duty toward Allah and toward his masters; and a believer from among the People of the Book.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3344)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثَلَاثَةٌ يُؤْتَوْنَ أَجْرَهُمْ مَرَّتَيْنِ رَجُلٌ كَانَتْ لَهُ أَمَةٌ فَأَدَّبَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ أَدَبَهَا وَعَلَّمَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَعْلِيمَهَا ثُمَّ أَعْتَقَهَا وَتَزَوَّجَهَا وَعَبْدٌ يُؤَدِّي حَقَّ اللهِ وَحَقَّ مَوَالِيهِ وَمُؤْمِنُ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whoever has a slave woman, and he educates her well and teaches her well, and then he frees her and marries her, he will have two rewards. And whichever slave performs the rights of Allah and the rights of his master, he will have two rewards."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ كَانَتْ لَهُ جَارِيَةٌ فَأَدَّبَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَأْدِيبَهَا وَعَلَّمَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَعْلِيمَهَا وَأَعْتَقَهَا وَتَزَوَّجَهَا؛ فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ وَأَيُّمَا عَبْدٍ مَمْلُوكٍ أَدَّى حَقَّ اللهِ وَحَقَّ مَوَالِيهِ؛ فَلَهُ أَجْرَانِ

"أربَعةٌ يُؤتَوْنَ أجَورَهم مرَّتينِ: أَزْواجُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ، وَمَنْ أسْلَمَ مِنْ أهْلِ الكتاب، ورجلُ كانَتْ عِنْدَهُ أمة فأعجبتْهُ فأعْتقها ثُمَّ تزوَّجها، وعبْدٌ مَملوكٌ أدَّى حق اللهِ وحق سادَتهِ".

"ثَلَاثَةٌ يُؤتَوْنَ أَجْرَهُم مرتين: رجل من أَهلِ الكتابِ آمن بنبيه وَأَدرك النبى ﷺ فآمنَ به واتبعه وصدَّقه فله أجران، وعبد مملوك أدَّى حقَّ اللَّه وحقَّ سيِّدِه فله أَجْران، ورجل كانت له أَمةٌ فَغَذَّاها فأحسَنَ عداءَها ثُمَّ أَدَّبها فأحسن تأدِيبها وعلَّمها فأَحسنَ تعليمها ثم أعتقها وتزوجها فلَه أَجران".
