حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ كَثِيرٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، عَنْ الْأَسْوَدِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، " أَنَّ زَوْجَ بَرِيرَةَ كَانَ حُرًّا حِينَ أُعْتِقَتْ ، وَأَنَّهَا خُيِّرَتْ " ، فَقَالَتْ : مَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَكُونَ مَعَهُ وَأَنَّ لِي كَذَا وَكَذَا .

Benefits and Issues:
According to Shaykh al-Albani rahimahullah, the statement "(Kan Hira) he was free" is the speech of Aswad bin Yazid, and according to Imam Bukhari, it is mursal (disconnected), whereas the narration of Ibn Abbas radi Allahu anhu that her husband was a slave is more authentic.
See (Sahih al-Bukhari, Book of Divorce, Hadith: 5282)
