اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنِ الشَّرِيدِ : أَنَّ أُمَّهُ أَوْصَتْهُ أَنْ يَعْتِقَ عَنْهَا رَقَبَةً مُؤْمِنَةً ، فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّ أُمِّي أَوْصَتْ أَنْ أُعْتِقَ عَنْهَا رَقَبَةً مُؤْمِنَةً ، وَعِنْدِي جَارِيَةٌ سَوْدَاءُ نُوبِيَّةٌ ، فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : خَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَرْسَلَهُ ، لَمْ يَذْكُرِ الشَّرِيدَ .
Narrated Ash-Sharid ibn Suwayd ath-Thaqafi: Sharid's mother left a will to emancipate a believing slave on her behalf. So he came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: Messenger of Allah, my mother left a will that I should emancipate a believing slave for her, and I have a black Nubian slave-girl. He mentioned a tradition about the test of the girl. Abu Dawud said: Khalid bin Abdullah narrated this tradition direct from the Prophet ﷺ. He did not mention the name of al-Sharid.
