أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِیسَی عَنْ رِبْعِیٍّ عَنْ سَمَاعَهَ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ أَعْتَقَ مُسْلِماً أَعْتَقَ اللَّهُ لَهُ بِکُلِّ عُضْوٍ مِنْهُ عُضْواً مِنَ النَّارِ.
