٢٤٠٨٤ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا (هشيم) (١) عن مغيرة عن إبراهيم قال: ولد المكاتبة بمنزلتها، يعتقون بعتقها ويرقون برقها، (فإن) (٢) ماتت (سعوا) (٣) فيما بقي من مكاتبتها، فإن أدوا عتقوا، وإن عجزوا (ردوا) (٤).
Ibrahim says that the children of a mukatab are in his status; they will be freed with his freedom, and will remain slaves with his slavery. And if their mother passes away, then they will try to pay the remaining amount of the contract of manumission; if it is paid, they will be freed, and if it is not paid, they will remain slaves.
