Sayyiduna Abu Juhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A woman came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and with her was a black slave girl. The woman said: O Messenger of Allah! I am obliged to free a believing neck (that is, a male or female slave); will this one suffice? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked the slave girl: Where is Allah Almighty? She replied: In the heaven. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Who am I? She said: You are the Messenger of Allah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Do you testify that there is no god but Allah Almighty and that I am the Messenger of Allah? She replied: Yes! The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do you believe in what has come from Allah Almighty? She said: Yes! The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said (to the woman): Free her! She is a believer.
Al-Tabarani recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, Sa'id bin Anbasah, who is da'if (weak).
