بَابُ أَنَّ عَبْدَ الْكَافِرِ إِذَا خَرَجَ إِلَيْنَا مُسْلِمًا فهُوَ حُرِّ
Chapter on the Slave of a Disbeliever Who Comes to Us as a Muslim Is Free
Hadith 5120
عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُعْتِقُ مَنْ جَاءَهُ مِنَ الْعَبِيدِ قَبْلَ مَوَالِيهِمْ إِذَا أَسْلَمُوا وَقَدْ أَعْتَقَ يَوْمَ الطَّائِفِ رَجُلَيْنِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that those slaves who became Muslim before their masters and reached the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would set them free. On the day of Ta’if, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) freed two such men.
Hadith 5121
عَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ قَالَ حَاصَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَهْلَ الطَّائِفِ فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِ عَبْدَانِ فَأَعْتَقَهُمَا أَحَدُهُمَا أَبُو بَكْرَةَ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُعْتِقُ الْعَبِيدَ إِذَا خَرَجُوا إِلَيْهِ
(Second chain) The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, laid siege to the people of Ta’if. Two of their slaves came to him, and he, peace and blessings be upon him, set them free. One of them was Sayyiduna Abu Bakrah, may Allah be pleased with him. Whenever a slave would come to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, having embraced Islam, he, peace and blessings be upon him, would set them free.
Hadith 5122
عَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَالِثٍ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ الطَّائِفِ مَنْ خَرَجَ إِلَيْنَا مِنَ الْعَبِيدِ فَهُوَ حُرٌّ فَخَرَجَ عَبِيدٌ مِنَ الْعَبِيدِ فِيهِمْ أَبُو بَكْرَةَ فَأَعْتَقَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ
. (Third chain) On the day of Ta’if, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: Whoever slaves come to us, they will be free. Then, along with Abu Bakrah, some slaves came to him (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), and he set them free.
Hadith 5123
عَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ رَابِعٍ قَالَ أَعْتَقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ الطَّائِفِ مَنْ خَرَجَ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ عَبِيدِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ
(4th chain) The narrator says: On the day of Ta’if, the slaves of the polytheists who came out and came to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, he, peace and blessings be upon him, set them free.
