2449. 'Atiyyah Al-'Awfī narrated from Abū Sa'eed Al-Khudrī, that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Whichever believer feeds a hungry believer, Allāh feeds him from the fruits of Paradise on the Day of Resurrection. Whichever believer gives drink to a thirsty believer, Allāh gives him to drink from the 'sealed nectar' on the Day of Resurrection. Whichever believer clothes a naked believer, Allāh clothes him from the green garments of Paradise." (Da'if)
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Gharib. This has been reported from 'Atiyyah from Abū Sa'eed Al-Khudrī in Mawqūf form, and it is more correct and more appropriate.

Commentary
Meet requital or fitting recompense is the established Sunnah of Allāh. Hence it is, that He has promised the finest sealed wine of Paradise to whoever gives a drink to the thirsty, the finest fruits of Paradise to whoever feeds the hungry, and the finest green garment of Paradise to whoever clothes a naked believer in the world.
