Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 28943 — A slave who commits an offence
٢٨٩٤٣ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا حفص عن حجاج عن حصين الحارثي عن الشعبي عن الحارث عن علي قال. ما جنى العبد ففي رقبته، ويخير مولاه، إن شاء فداه وإن شاء دفعه (١).
Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Whatever offence (jinayah) a slave commits falls upon his own neck, and his master has the choice: if he wishes he may pay a ransom for him, or he may hand over the slave himself in compensation.
