Chapter: If A Man Kills His Slave Or Mutilates Him, Should Retaliation Be Imposed On Him?
Sunan Abu Dawud 4517 — If A Man Kills His Slave Or Mutilates Him
حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، بِإِسْنَادِ شُعْبَةَ مِثْلَهُ ، زَادَ : ثُمَّ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَ نَسِيَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ ، فَكَانَ يَقُولُ : لَا يُقْتَلُ حُرٌّ بِعَبْدٍ .
Qatadah transmitted the tradition mentioned above through a chain of narrators like that of Shubah. This version adds: Then al-Hasan forgot this tradition, and he used to say: A free man is not to be killed for a slave.
