Hadith 22891

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عِيسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي زَيْدٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ , " أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَعْتَقَ سِتَّةَ أَعْبُدٍ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ لَيْسَ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرَهُمْ ، فَأَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ ، وَأَرَقَّ أَرْبَعَةً " . .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Zaid (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 Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called those slaves, divided them into three groups, and then drew lots among them. He freed the two whose names were drawn, and left the remaining four as slaves.
