بَابُ عِتْقِ الْمُكَاتَبِ إِذَا أَدَّى مَا عَلَيْهِ قَبْلَ مَحِلِّهِEmancipation of the Mukatab if he pays before due time
Hadith 1298
حَدَّثَنِي مَالِك، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَبِيعَةَ بْنَ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، وَغَيْرَهُ، يَذْكُرُونَ أَنَّ مُكَاتَبًا كَانَ لِلْفُرَافِصَةِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ الْحَنَفِيِّ، وَأَنَّهُ عَرَضَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَدْفَعَ إِلَيْهِ جَمِيعَ مَا عَلَيْهِ مِنْ كِتَابَتِهِ، فَأَبَى الْفُرَافِصَةُ، فَأَتَى الْمُكَاتَبُ مَرْوَانَ بْنَ الْحَكَمِ وَهُوَ أَمِيرُ الْمَدِينَةِ، فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لَهُ، فَدَعَا مَرْوَانُ، الْفُرَافِصَةَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ ذَلِكَ، فَأَبَى، فَأَمَرَ مَرْوَانُ بِذَلِكَ الْمَالِ " أَنْ يُقْبَضَ مِنَ الْمُكَاتَبِ، فَيُوضَعَ فِي بَيْتِ الْمَالِ، وَقَالَ لِلْمُكَاتَبِ : اذْهَبْ، فَقَدْ عَتَقْتَ " . فَلَمَّا رَأَى ذَلِكَ الْفُرَافِصَةُ، قَبَضَ الْمَالَ .
It is narrated from Rabi'ah bin Abi Abdur Rahman and others that Farafisah bin Umair had a mukatab (contracted slave), who brought the entire amount of his contract before the appointed time. Farafisah refused to accept it. The mukatab went to Marwan, who was the governor of Madinah, and informed him of the matter. Marwan summoned Farafisah and said: "Take the amount of the contract." Farafisah refused. Marwan ordered that the money be taken from the mukatab and placed in the public treasury (Bayt al-Mal), and said to the mukatab: "Go, you are free." When Farafisah saw this situation, he took the money.
