Hadith 19
Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Every prophet was given miracles similar to those which were given to the prophets before him, and people believed in them. But the miracle that was given to me is the Qur'an which Allah has revealed to me (such a miracle was not given to any prophet). Therefore, I hope that my followers will be the most numerous on the Day of Resurrection.
Hadith 20
Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: By Him in Whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), there is none from this nation, be he Jew or Christian (or follower of any other religion), who hears about me and then does not believe in what I have been sent with (i.e., the Qur'an and Sunnah), but he will be among the inhabitants of Hell.
Hadith 21
Sayyiduna Salih bin Salih Al-Hamdani narrates from Sha’bi, he says:
I saw a man who was from Khurasan. He asked Sha’bi, “The people of our country say that whoever frees his slave-girl and then marries her, it is as if he rides a sacrificial animal.”
Sha’bi said: Abu Burdah bin Abi Musa narrated to me, from his father, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
“Three types of people will have a double reward.”
One is the person from the People of the Book (i.e., a Jew or a Christian) who believed in his Prophet, then he finds my time and believes in me, follows me, and affirms me as truthful—he will have a double reward.
And one is the slave who fulfills the right of Allah and also the right of his master—he will have a double reward.
And one is the person who has a slave-girl, then he feeds her well and gives her good drink, then educates and trains her well, then frees her and marries her—he will also have a double reward.
Then Sha’bi said to the Khurasani, “Take this hadith without any effort, otherwise a person used to travel all the way to Madinah for a hadith even smaller than this.”
