٣٥٥٨٣ - حدثنا هشيم عن ابن عون عن رجاء بن حيوة أن أبا عبيدة كتب إلى عمر بن الخطاب في عبد أسره المشركون، ثم ظهر عليه (المسلمون) (١) بعد ذلك، قال: صاحبه أحق به ما لم يقسم، فإذا قسم (٢) مضى (٣).
Sayyiduna Abu Ubaydah (may Allah be pleased with him) wrote to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): If the polytheists take a slave captive and the Muslims then regain control of him, what is the ruling? Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Before the division of the spoils his owner has more right to him, and once they are divided, his right has ended.
