Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 31072 — Book of the Judgments

Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said that the husband of Barirah (may Allah be pleased with her) was a black slave named Mughith. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave four rulings concerning Barirah. Those who freed Barirah had stipulated the right of wala' (the tie of clientage), so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ruled that the right of wala' goes to the one who pays the price. He (peace and blessings be upon him) gave her the choice regarding her husband, and he ordered her to observe the waiting period ('iddah). Barirah had received some charity, and she gave part of it as a gift to Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her). Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) mentioned this to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is charity for her and a gift for us."
