Abu Taybah narrates that Shurahbil bin Simt called Sayyiduna Amr bin Abasah (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: "Ibn Abasah! Can you narrate such a hadith which you yourself have heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), with neither any addition nor any falsehood, and which you have not heard through any intermediary but directly from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He said: "Yes. I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say:

(1) Whoever shoots an arrow in the way of Allah, whether it hits the target or not, he will have the reward of freeing a slave from the descendants of Sayyiduna Isma'il (peace be upon him).

(2) Whoever grows old in the way of Allah, this deed will be a light for him.

(3) Any Muslim who frees a Muslim slave, for every limb of the freed one, the liberator's every limb will be freed from the Fire.

(4) Any Muslim woman who frees a Muslim woman, for every limb of the freed woman, the liberator's every limb will be freed from Hell.

(5) Any Muslim man or woman who has three minor children pass away (i.e., die), they will become a barrier for him/her in front of the Fire (i.e., he/she will not enter Hell).

(6) Whoever gets up to perform ablution with the intention of prayer and lets the water reach its proper places in ablution, he will be purified from every sin or mistake. Now, if he performs the prayer, Allah Almighty will raise his rank, and if he just sits (without praying), he will sit purified (from sins)."
