حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ کَثِيرٍ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ عَنْ أَبِي حَبِيبَةَ الطَّائِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَائِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَثَلُ الَّذِي يَعْتِقُ عِنْدَ الْمَوْتِ کَمَثَلِ الَّذِي يُهْدِي إِذَا شَبِع
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 3968
Narrated Abud Darda: The Prophet ﷺ said: the similitude of a man who emancipates a slave at the time of his death is like that of a man who gives a present after satisfying his appetite.
