Hadith 19938

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ ، قَالَ : " أَعْتَقَ رَجُلٌ سِتَّةَ مَمْلُوكِينَ لَهُ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ ، فَأَقْرَعَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَيْنَهُمْ ، فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ مِنْهُمْ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man, at the time of his death, set free all six of his slaves, and he had no wealth other than them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called those slaves, divided them into three parts, and drew lots among them. Then, those two whose names came out were set free.
