العبد بين رجلين يعتقه أحدهماA Slave Shared Between Two, One Frees Him
Hadith 23245
٢٣٢٤٥ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا عبد السلام عن يزيد بن عبد الرحمن (الدالاني) (١) عن إبراهيم (الصائغ) (٢) عن نافع عن ابن عمر في عبد بين اثنين فأعتق أحدهما نصيبه، قال: عليه أن يعتق بقيته، فإن لم يكن عنده سعى العبد في بقية (ثمنه) (٣)، وكانوا شركاء في الولاء (٤).
It is narrated from Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that if a slave is jointly owned by two persons and one of them sets him free, then it is obligatory upon him to also free the remaining part of the slave (by purchasing it). If he does not possess anything, then the slave should work to free himself in exchange for his own neck. Then both of them will share in the slave’s allegiance (wala’).
