Hadiths Of The Reward of Quenching Others' Thirst

الإمام محمد الباقر (عليه السَّلام):

إنَّ اللّهَ تَبارَكَ و تَعالى يُحِبُّ إبرادَ الكَبدِ الحَرّى ، و مَن سَقى كَبدا حَرّى مِن بَهيمَةٍ أو غَيرِها أظَلَّهُ اللّهُ يَومَ لا ظِلَّ إلاّ ظِلُّهُ .

Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (as):

Verily Allah loves it when one cools down someone's internal heat [by quenching their thirst], and whoever quenches an animal's or any other being's internal heat, Allah will shade him on the Day when no shade will avail except His shade.

الإمام محمد الباقر (عليه السَّلام):

كانَ أبي يقولُ : خَيرُ الأعمالِ الحَرْثُ ، تَزرَعهُ فَيَأكُلُ مِنهُ البَرُّ و الفاجِرُ ، أمّا البَرُّ فَما أكَلَ مِن شيءٍ استَغفَرَ لكَ ، و أمّا الفاجِرُ فما أكَلَ مِنهُ مِن شَيءٍ لَعَنَهُ ، و يَأكُلُ مِنهُ البهائمُ و الطَّيرُ.

Imam Muhammad al-Baqir (as):

My father [Imam Ali al-Sajjad (as)] used to say, 'The best of occupations is tilling the land, the produce of which is eaten by both the good-doer and the wrongdoer. That which the good-doer eats will seek forgiveness on his [i.e. the grower's] behalf, and that which the wrongdoer eats will curse him [i.e. the wrongdoer]. The birds and animals eat thereof too.'
