Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 24082 — Selling a mukatab slave
٢٤٠٨٢ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا وكيع عن هشام بن عروة عن أبيه عن عائشة أن بريرة أتتها وهي مكاتبة، فسألت النبي ﵇ (١): أشتريها على أن ولاءها لمواليها فقال: "اشتريها و (أعتقيها) (٢)، فإنما الولاء لمن أعتق" (٣).
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that Sayyidah Barirah (may Allah be pleased with her), who was a mukatabah (a slave woman under a contract of manumission), came to me, and I asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): If I buy her, will her wala (right of inheritance by clientage) go to her masters? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Buy her and set her free; wala goes to the one who sets free."
