إِطْعَامُ الْأَسِيرِ حَقٌّ عَلَى مَنْ أَسَرَهُ وَ إِنْ كَانَ يُرَادُ مِنَ الْغَدِ قَتْلُهُ فَإِنَّهُ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يُطْعَمَ وَ يُسْقَى وَ [يُظَلَ] وَ يُرْفَقَ بِهِ كَافِراً كَانَ أَوْ غَيْرَهُ.

2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad from Hariz from Zurarah who has said the following: “Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that feeding the prisoner is upon the one who has captured him even if he wants to eliminate him the next day. He should feed him, quench his thirst, [provide him shadow, shelter] and be kind to him, regardless, he is an unbeliever or not.”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
