Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub who said, ‘I wrote to Abu Al-Hassan Al-Reza asws and asked him asws about the man who emancipated a young boy, or an old Sheykh, one with chronic illness, and the one for whom there is no dodge for him. So he asws said: ‘The one who emancipates an owned slave for whom there is no means (of earning) for him, so upon him is that he shelters him until he is self-sufficient from him, and similar to that is what Amir Al-Momineen asws did, when he asws emancipated the young and the one for whom there is no means (of earning)’.
