أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحِيمِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا زُهَيْرٌ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ

عَنْ جُوَيْرِيَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ أَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَعْتِقَ هَذَا الْغُلَامَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «بَلْ أَعْطِيهِ أَخَاكِ الَّذِي فِي الْأَعْرَابِ يَرْعَى عَلَيْهِ فَإِنَّهُ أَعْظَمُ لِأَجْرِكِ»

✧ From Juwayriyah, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ, that she said: "O Prophet of Allah, I wanted to manumit this slave boy." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Rather, give him to your brother who is among the Bedouins to tend for him, for that is a greater reward for you."
