Hadith #2

2- وَعَنْهُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ هِشَامٍ وَحَمَّادٍ وَابْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ وَابْنِ بُكَيْرٍ وَغَيْرِهِمْ كُلِّهِمْ قَالُوا قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) لا صَدَقَةَ وَلا عِتْقَ إِلا مَا أُرِيدَ بِهِ وَجْهُ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.

2. It is narrated from the narrator of the previous Hadith from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hisham and Hammad and ibn ’Udhaynah and ibn Bukayr and others all of whom have said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah , has said, ’Giving charity or setting free a slave is not valid unless it is for the sake of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious.’”
