أَخْبَرَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ بَشِيرِ بْنِ نَهِيكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: مَنْ أَعْتَقَ شِقْصًا فِي مَمْلُوكٍ، فَعِتْقُهُ عَلَيْهِ فِي مَالِهِ إِنْ كَانَ لَهُ مَالٌ لَيْسَ لِلَّهِ شَرِيكٌ.
Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever frees his share in a jointly owned slave, and if he has wealth and there is no partner with him, then freeing him from his wealth becomes obligatory upon him."
