Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَارِمُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْلَةَ عَنِ الْغَرِيفِ بْنِ عَيَّاشٍ عَنْ وَاثِلَةَ بْنِ الْأَسْقَعِ قَالَ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَفَرٌ مِنْ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ فَقَالُوا إِنَّ صَاحِبًا لَنَا أَوْجَبَ قَالَ فَلْيُعْتِقْ رَقَبَةً يَفْدِي اللَّهُ بِكُلِّ عُضْوٍ مِنْهَا عُضْوًا مِنْهُ مِنْ النَّارِ.
English Translation
Arim ibn al-Fadl told us, saying: Abdullah ibn al-Mubarak told us, from Ibrahim ibn Abi Ablah, from al-Gharif ibn Ayyash, from Wathilah ibn al-Asqa', who said: Some people from the Banu Sulaym came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and said: "A companion of ours has become liable (for a major sin/expiation)." He said: "Let him free a slave; Allah will ransom, for every limb of it, a limb of him from the Fire."
