Chapter: Regarding One Who Manumits Slaves Of His That Exceed One Third Of His Property.
Hadith 3961
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَتِيقٍ ، وَأَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ ، " أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَعْتَقَ سِتَّةَ أَعْبُدٍ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرُهُمْ ، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ ، فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ وَأَرَقَّ أَرْبَعَةً " .
Imran bin Husain said: A man emancipated six slaved at the time of his death and he had no other property. The Prophet ﷺ was informed about it. He cast lots among them, emancipated two and retained four in slavery.
