أَخْبَرَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الْعِجْلِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُوسَى عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ طَلْحَةَ الْيَامِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْسَجَةَ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ
جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عَلِّمْنِي عَمَلًا يُدْخِلُنِي الْجَنَّةَ قَالَ «لَئِنْ كُنْتَ أَقْصَرْتَ الْخُطْبَةَ فَقَدْ أَعْرَضْتَ الْمَسْأَلَةَ أَعْتِقِ النَّسَمَةَ وَفُكَّ الرَّقَبَةَ» قَالَ أَوَ لَيْسَتَا بِوَاحِدَةٍ؟ قَالَ «لَا عِتْقُ النَّسَمَةِ أَنْ تَفَرَّدَ بِعِتْقِهَا وَفَكُّ الرَّقَبَةِ أَنْ تُعْطِي فِي ثَمَنِهَا وَالْمِنْحَةُ الْوَكُوفُ وَالْفَيْءُ عَلَى ذِي الرَّحِمِ الْقَاطِعِ فَإِنْ لَمْ تُطِقْ ذَاكَ فَأَطْعِمِ الْجَائِعَ وَاسْقِ الظَّمْآنَ وَمُرْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَانْهَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ فَإِنْ لَمْ تُطِقْ ذَلِكَ فَكُفَّ لِسَانَكَ إِلَّا مِنْ خَيْرٍ»

✧ A bedouin came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: "O Messenger of Allah, teach me a deed that will admit me to Paradise." He said: "Though you have shortened the speech, you have broadened the question. Free the slave, and release the neck." He said: "Are they not the same?" He said: "No, freeing the slave is that you alone free him, and releasing the neck is that you contribute to his price. And the abundant gift, and the return to a relative who cuts off ties. If you cannot do that, then feed the hungry, give water to the thirsty, enjoin good, and forbid evil. If you cannot do that, then restrain your tongue except from good."
