Hadith 1222

Ibn 'Umar (RAA) narrated that The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Anyone who emancipates his share in a slave and has enough money to pay the full price for him, a fair price for the slave should be fixed. His partners should be given their shares, and the slave should thus be emancipated. Otherwise he is emancipated only to the extent of the first man’s share.” Agreed upon, Abu Hurairah (RAA) narrated that The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Otherwise his value will be estimated and he will be required to work to pay for his freedom, but he must not be overburdened.” Agreed upon. And it has been said that the requirement to work was Mudraj (words of the narrator lumped into the narration).
