Hadith No son can repay the kindness of his father unless he finds him a slave and buys him and emancipates him

عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : «لاَ يَجْزِي ولدٌ والدًا إلا أن يجده مملوكًا، فَيَشْتَرِيَهُ فَيُعْتِقَهُ».

Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No son can repay the kindness of his father unless he finds him a slave and buys him and emancipates him."

Authentic hadith Narrated by Muslim
