Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 22488 — A man who buys a slave or a house

It is narrated from Ibn Awn that a man bought a slave and then earned a profit by hiring him out. Then another man laid claim to the slave, and they came disputing to Iyas bin Mu'awiyah. The claimant turned out to be entitled to the slave, so he ruled in his favor for the slave and his earnings, and he ruled in favor of the buyer, against the person from whom he had bought him, for the like of the slave and the like of his earnings.
