عَنْ هَيَّاجِ بْنِ عِمْرَانَ الْبُرْجُمِيِّ أَنَّ غُلَامًا لِأَبِيهِ أَبَقَ فَجَعَلَ لِلَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى عَلَيْهِ إِنْ قَدَرَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَقْطَعَ يَدَهُ قَالَ فَقَدَرَ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ فَبَعَثَنِي إِلَى عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ قَالَ فَقَالَ أَقْرِئْ أَبَاكَ السَّلَامَ وَأَخْبِرْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَحُثُّ فِي خُطْبَتِهِ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ وَيَنْهَى عَنِ الْمُثْلَةِ فَلْيُكَفِّرْ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَيَتَجَاوَزْ عَنْ غُلَامِهِ قَالَ وَبَعَثَنِي إِلَى سَمُرَةَ فَقَالَ أَقْرِئْ أَبَاكَ السَّلَامَ وَأَخْبِرْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَحُثُّ فِي خُطْبَتِهِ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ وَيَنْهَى عَنِ الْمُثْلَةِ فَلْيُكَفِّرْ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَيَتَجَاوَزْ عَنْ غُلَامِهِ
Hiyaj bin Imran Barjami narrates that once his father's slave ran away, and his father made a vow that if he gained power over him, he would cut off his hand. So, he gained power over him and sent me to Sayyiduna Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him). When I went to him and told him the whole matter, he said: Convey my greetings to your father and inform him that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to encourage giving charity in his sermons and forbade mutilation, so your father should give the expiation for his vow and forgive his slave. Then my father sent me to Sayyidah Samrah (may Allah be pleased with him), and he replied: Convey greetings to your father and inform him that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to encourage charity in his sermons and forbade mutilation, therefore he should give the expiation for his oath and forgive his slave.
