The inclusion of the reward for freeing a slave in the case of a disbeliever slave

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
Yes.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Regarding the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), “Whoever frees a Muslim slave, Allah will free every part of his body from the Fire,” does this hadith include the one who frees a disbeliever slave, or is it specific to a Muslim slave?

The Shaykh:
A Muslim slave, yes.
