Hadith 3282
Narrated Muawiyah bin al-Hakam al-Sulami: I said: Messenger of Allah, I have a slave girl whom I slapped. This grieved the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I said to him: Should I not emancipate her? He said: Bring her to me. He said: Then I brought her. He asked: Where is Allah ? She replied: In the heaven. He said: Who am I ? She replied: You are the Messenger of Allah. He said: Emancipate her, she is a believer.

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.
Hadith 3284
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.
