[37] Appendix II: Transferring Rewards by feeding/quenching/clothing/paying debts of a Momin وعن علي بن الحسين عليهما السلام قال: من أطعم مؤمنا من جوع، أطعمه الله عزوجل من ثمار الجنة، ومن سقى مؤمنا من ظمأ، سقاه [ الله يوم القيامة ] من الرحيق المختوم، [ ومن كسى مؤمنا من العرى، كساه الله عزوجل من الثياب الخضر “ And from Ali -asws Bin Al-Hassan -asws having said: ‘The one who feeds a Momin from hunger, Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic would Feed him from the fruits of the Paradise.
And the one who quenches a Momin from thirst, Allah -azwj would Quench him of the Day of Judgment from the Sealed Nectar. And the one who clothes a Momin from the bareness, Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic would Clothe him from the clothes of Paradise’. وفي حديث آخر ” قال: 6 ] من كسا مؤمنا من عرى لم يزل في ضمان الله مادام عليه سلك.
And in another Hadeeth, he -asws said: ‘The one who clothes a Momin from bareness would not cease to be in the Guarantee of Allah -azwj for as long as there is a (single) thread (of it) upon him’.

And from Abu Abdullah -asws having said to one of his -asws companions: ‘O Sabit! But, do you have the capacity to free a slave every day?’ (He said), ‘May Allah -azwj Keep you -asws well!
I am not (financially) strong upon that?’ He -asws said: ‘But, are you able to either provide lunch or dinner to four from the Muslims?’ I said, ‘As for this, so I am strong enough upon it’.
