حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الْجَوْزَجَانِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي الْمَسْعُودِيُّ ، عَنْ عَوْنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ : " أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِجَارِيَةٍ سَوْدَاءَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّ عَلَيَّ رَقَبَةً مُؤْمِنَةً ، فَقَالَ لَهَا : أَيْنَ اللَّهُ ؟ ، فَأَشَارَتْ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ بِأُصْبُعِهَا ، فَقَالَ لَهَا : فَمَنْ أَنَا ؟ ، فَأَشَارَتْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَإِلَى السَّمَاءِ ، يَعْنِي أَنْتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ، فَقَالَ : أَعْتِقْهَا ، فَإِنَّهَا مُؤْمِنَةٌ " .
Narrated Abu Hurairah: A man brought the Prophet ﷺ a black slave girl. He said: Messenger of Allah, emancipation of believing slave is due to me. He asked her: Where is Allah ? She pointed to the heaven with her finger. He then asked her: Who am I ? She pointed to the Prophet ﷺ and to the heaven, that is to say: You are the Messenger of Allah. He then said: Set her free, she is a believer.
