Hadith of al-Bara’ ibn ‘Azib (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Ahmad 18616 — Hadith of al-Bara’ ibn ‘Azib
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَن مَنْصُورٍ ، وَالْأَعْمَشِ ، عَن طَلْحَةَ ، عَن عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْسَجَةَ النَّهْمِيِّ ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى الصُّفُوفِ الْأُوَلِ ، وَزَيِّنُوا الْقُرْآنَ بِأَصْوَاتِكُمْ ، وَمَنْ مَنَحَ مَنِيحَةَ لَبَنٍ ، أَوْ مَنِيحَةَ وَرِقٍ ، أَوْ هَدَى زُقَاقًا ، فَهُوَ كَعِتْقِ رَقَبَةٍ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty sends down mercy upon those in the first rows, and the angels continue to pray for mercy for them. And he used to say: Beautify the Noble Qur’an with your voices. And whoever gives a gift to someone, such as silver or gold, or gives someone milk to drink, or gives someone a water-skin, it is as if he has freed a slave.
