حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ صَالِحٍ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ ثَلَاثَةٌ يُؤْتَوْنَ أُجُورَهُمْ مَرَّتَيْنِ رَجُلٌ كَانَتْ لَهُ أَمَةٌ فَأَدَّبَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَأْدِيبَهَا وَعَلَّمَهَا فَأَحْسَنَ تَعْلِيمَهَا ثُمَّ أَعْتَقَهَا فَتَزَوَّجَهَا وَمَمْلُوكٌ أَعْطَى حَقَّ رَبِّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَحَقَّ مَوَالِيهِ وَرَجُلٌ آمَنَ بِكِتَابِهِ وَبِمُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ قَالَ لِي الشَّعْبِيُّ خُذْهَا بِغَيْرِ شَيْءٍ وَلَوْ سِرْتَ فِيهَا إِلَى كَرْمَانَ لَكَانَ ذَلِكَ يَسِيرًا.
English Translation
Muhammad b. Ja'far told us: Shu'ba told us, from Salih, from al-Sha'bi, from Abu Burda, from Abu Musa, from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, who said: "Three will be given their reward twice: a man who had a slave-girl, disciplined her well and educated her well, then freed her and married her; a slave who fulfills the right of his Lord, Mighty and Majestic, and the right of his masters; and a man who believes in his own scripture and in Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him." He said: al-Sha'bi said to me, "Take this without anything in return; even if you traveled for it to Kirman, that would be easy."
