Chapter 433 | Reward of Jihad in the way of Allah along with a just Imam
وَ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَنْ بَلَّغَ رِسَالَهَ غَازٍ کَمَنْ أَعْتَقَ رَقَبَهً وَ هُوَ شَرِیکُهُ فِی بَابِ غَزْوَتِهِ.
3. The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said, “One who takes a letter of a warrior to its destination, will be like one who has freed a slave and will get the reward of participating in that Jihad.”
