عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ فِي حَدِيثٍ طَوِيلٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَيْضًا قَالَتْ وَكَانَتْ أَيْ بَرِيرَةُ تَحْتَ عَبْدٍ فَلَمَّا أَعْتَقْتُهَا قَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ اخْتَارِي فَإِنْ شِئْتِ أَنْ تَمْكُثِي تَحْتَ هَذَا الْعَبْدِ وَإِنْ شِئْتِ أَنْ تُفَارِقِيهِ
It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), this is a long hadith, and among it was this: Sayyida Barirah (may Allah be pleased with her) was the wife of a slave. When I (Aisha) set her free, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her: You have been given the choice; if you wish, you may remain under the authority of that slave, and if you wish, you may separate.
