اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ الْبَصْرِيِّ ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ : أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَعْتَقَ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ سِتَّةَ رَجْلَةٍ لَهُ ، فَجَاءَ وَرَثَتُهُ مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ فَأَخْبَرُوا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمَا صَنَعَ ، قَالَ : " أَوَفَعَلَ ذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ : لَوْ عَلِمْنَا إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ مَا صَلَّيْنَا عَلَيْهِ " قَالَ : فَأَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ ، فَأَعْتَقَ مِنْهُمْ اثْنَيْنِ ، وَرَدَّ أَرْبَعَةً فِي الرِّقِّ .
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. His heirs came and informed the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "If we had known about this earlier, we would not have performed his funeral prayer." 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.
