عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، مَا الشَّيْءُ الَّذِي لَا يَحِلُّ مَنْعُهُ ؟ قَالَ : " الْمَاءُ ، وَالْمِلْحُ ، وَالنَّارُ " . قَالَتْ : هَذَا الْمَاءُ قَدْ عَرَفْنَاهُ ، فَمَا بَالُ الْمِلْحِ وَالنَّارِ ؟ فَقَالَ : " مَنْ أَعْطَى مِلْحًا فَكَأَنَّمَا تَصَدَّقَ بِجَمِيعِ مَا حَطِئْتَ بِهِ الْمِلْحَ ، وَمَنْ أَعْطَى نَارًا فَكَأَنَّمَا تَصَدَّقَ بِجَمِيعِ مَا أَنْضَجَتِ النَّارُ ، وَمَنْ سَقَى مُسْلِمًا شَرْبَةً مِنْ مَاءٍ حَيْثُ يُوجَدُ الْمَاءُ فَكَأَنَّمَا أَعْتَقَ رَقَبَةً ، وَمَنْ سَقَى مُسْلِمًا شَرْبَةً مِنْ مَاءٍ حَيْثُ لَا يُوجَدُ الْمَاءُ فَكَأَنَّمَا أَحْيَاهُ " .
قُلْتُ : رَوَاهُ ابْنُ مَاجَهْ بِاخْتِصَارٍ .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ ، وَفِيهِ زُهَيْرُ بْنُ مَرْزُوقٍ قَالَ الْبُخَارِيُّ : مَجْهُولٌ مُنْكَرُ الْحَدِيثِ .
Sayyidah Aishah Siddiqah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that she said: "O Messenger of Allah! What is the thing that it is not permissible to withhold?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Water, salt and fire." Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "Water is understandable, but what about salt and fire?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever gives salt, it is as if he gave in charity all that is prepared (that is, cooked) with salt; and whoever gives fire, it is as if he gave in charity all that the fire has cooked. Whoever gives a Muslim a drink of water in a place where water is available, it is as if he freed a slave; and whoever gives a Muslim a drink of water in a place where water is not available, it is as if he gave him life."
(Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: Ibn Majah recorded this report in abridged form. Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Its chain contains a narrator, Zuhayr bin Marzuq. Imam al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) says: He is majhul (unknown) and munkar al-hadith (his narrations are rejected).

Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to bring water in waterskins and give the Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) water to drink.
Abu Ya'la recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
