2522. It was narrated that Shurahbil bin Simt said: I said to Ka'b: O Ka'b bin Murrah, tell us a Hadith from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, but be careful. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: "Whoever frees a Muslim man, he will be his ransom from
the Fire; each of his bones will suffice (as a ransom) for each of his bones. Whoever frees two Muslim women, they will be his ransom from the Fire; each of their two bones will suffice (as a ransom) for each of his bones.” (Da’if)
