Hadith 19951
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُبَارَكُ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ ، قَالَ : ثَنَا عِمْرَانُ بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ ، قَالَ : " أُتِيَ بِرَجُلٍ أَعْتَقَ سِتَّةَ مَمْلُوكِينَ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ ، وَلَيْسَ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرُهُمْ ، فَأَقْرَعَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَيْنَهُمْ ، فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ وَأَرَقَّ أَرْبَعَةً " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man, at the time of his death, freed 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 groups, and drew lots among them. Then, the two whose names were drawn were set free, and the remaining four were kept as slaves.
