عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ عُهْدَةُ الرَّقِيقِ أَرْبَعُ لَيَالٍ قَالَ قَتَادَةُ وَأَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ يَقُولُونَ ثَلَاثُ لَيَالٍ
Narrated by Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The responsibility of a slave is for four nights. Whereas Qatadah says: According to the people of Madinah, it is three nights.

Brief Explanation
Benefits: … That is, if any defect is found in a slave within four days, then he may be returned to the seller without the need for witnesses. However, if the buyer claims a defect after this period, then witnesses will be required to establish whether the slave was indeed defective from the beginning. However, this narration is weak.
