بَابُ الْوَصِيَّةِ فِي الْمُكَاتَبِChapter on Bequest Regarding a Mukatab
Hadith 1300Q20
قَالَ مَالِكٌ : فِي الْمُكَاتَبِ يَكُونُ لِسَيِّدِهِ عَلَيْهِ عَشَرَةُ آلَافِ دِرْهَمٍ فَيَضَعُ عَنْهُ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ أَلْفَ دِرْهَمٍ. قَالَ مَالِكٌ : يُقَوَّمُ الْمُكَاتَبُ فَيُنْظَرُ كَمْ قِيمَتُهُ. فَإِنْ كَانَتْ قِيمَتُهُ أَلْفَ دِرْهَمٍ فَالَّذِي وُضِعَ عَنْهُ عُشْرُ الْكِتَابَةِ. وَذَلِكَ فِي الْقِيمَةِ مِائَةُ دِرْهَمٍ. وَهُوَ عُشْرُ الْقِيمَةِ فَيُوضَعُ عَنْهُ عُشْرُ الْكِتَابَةِ فَيَصِيرُ ذَلِكَ إِلَى عُشْرِ الْقِيمَةِ نَقْدًا. وَإِنَّمَا ذَلِكَ كَهَيْئَتِهِ لَوْ وُضِعَ عَنْهُ جَمِيعُ مَا عَلَيْهِ وَلَوْ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ لَمْ يُحْسَبْ فِي ثُلُثِ مَالِ الْمَيِّتِ إِلَّا قِيمَةُ الْمُكَاتَبِ أَلْفُ دِرْهَمٍ. وَإِنْ كَانَ الَّذِي وُضِعَ عَنْهُ نِصْفُ الْكِتَابَةِ حُسِبَ فِي ثُلُثِ مَالِ الْمَيِّتِ نِصْفُ الْقِيمَةِ. وَإِنْ كَانَ أَقَلَّ مِنْ ذَلِكَ أَوْ أَكْثَرَ فَهُوَ عَلَى هَذَا الْحِسَابِ. ¤
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said that if a master frees his mukatab at the time of his death, and he cannot be freed from the one-third, then he will be freed to the extent possible, and that much of the price of the contract of manumission will be waived. For example, if the mukatab owed five thousand dirhams and his value was two thousand dirhams, and the deceased's one-third estate is one thousand dirhams, then half of the mukatab will be freed and half of the contract price, that is, two and a half thousand rupees, will be waived.
