Hadith 818

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ " يُودَى الْمُكَاتَبُ بِقَدْرِ مَا أَدَّى " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "An 'abd mukatab'—that is, a slave with whom the master has made an agreement for freedom upon payment of a specified amount—he will be entitled to the same proportion of blood money as the amount he has paid."
