بَابُ جَرِّ الْعَبْدِ الْوَلَاءَ إِذَا أُعْتِقَChapter on Inheritance of Loyalty for a Freed Slave
Hadith 1287
حَدَّثَنِي حَدَّثَنِي مَالِك، عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، أَنَّ الزُّبَيْرَ بْنَ الْعَوَّامِ " اشْتَرَى عَبْدًا فَأَعْتَقَهُ، وَلِذَلِكَ الْعَبْدِ بَنُونَ مِنَ امْرَأَةٍ حُرَّةٍ، فَلَمَّا أَعْتَقَهُ الزُّبَيْرُ، قَالَ : هُمْ مَوَالِيَّ، وَقَالَ مَوَالِي أُمِّهِمْ : بَلْ هُمْ مَوَالِينَا . فَاخْتَصَمُوا إِلَى عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ، فَقَضَى عُثْمَانُ لِلزُّبَيْرِ بِوَلَائِهِمْ "
It is narrated from Rabi'ah bin Abi Abdur Rahman that Sayyiduna Zubair bin Al-Awwam (may Allah be pleased with him) bought a slave and set him free. The children of this slave were from a free woman. When Sayyiduna Zubair bin Al-Awwam (may Allah be pleased with him) freed the slave, he said: "His children are my clients (mawla) and their mother's." The people said: "They are our clients." Both parties disputed and went to Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him). He (may Allah be pleased with him) ruled that their wala' (clientship) would go to Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him).
