Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَن طَلْحَةَ بْنِ مُصَرِّفٍ عَن عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْسَجَةَ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ مَنَحَ مَنِيحَةَ وَرِقٍ أَوْ مَنِيحَةَ لَبَنٍ أَوْ هَدَى زُقَاقًا كَانَ لَهُ كَعَدْلِ رَقَبَةٍ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً كَعِتْقِ رَقَبَةٍ.
English Translation
Waki' told us, al-A'mash told us, from Talhah ibn Musarrif, from Abd al-Rahman ibn Awsajah, from al-Bara' ibn Azib, he said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever gives someone a gift of silver, or a gift of milk, or guides someone along a path, it is for him like freeing a slave" - and he said another time: "like the manumission of a slave."
