Hadith 1300Q34

قَالَ مَالِكٌ فِي مُدَبَّرٍ قَالَ لِسَيِّدِهِ : عَجِّلْ لِي الْعِتْقَ. وَأُعْطِيكَ خَمْسِينَ مِنْهَا مُنَجَّمَةً عَلَيَّ. فَقَالَ سَيِّدُهُ : نَعَمْ. أَنْتَ حُرٌّ. وَعَلَيْكَ خَمْسُونَ دِينَارًا. تُؤَدِّي إِلَيَّ كُلَّ عَامٍ عَشَرَةَ دَنَانِيرَ. فَرَضِيَ بِذَلِكَ الْعَبْدُ. ثُمَّ هَلَكَ السَّيِّدُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ بِيَوْمٍ أَوْ يَوْمَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثَةٍ. قَالَ مَالِكٌ : يَثْبُتُ لَهُ الْعِتْقُ. وَصَارَتِ الْخَمْسُونَ دِينَارًا دَيْنًا عَلَيْهِ. وَجَازَتْ شَهَادَتُهُ. وَثَبَتَتْ حُرْمَتُهُ. وَمِيرَاثُهُ وَحُدُودُهُ. وَلَا يَضَعُ عَنْهُ مَوْتُ سَيِّدِهِ. شَيْئًا مِنْ ذَلِكَ الدَّيْنِ. ¤
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said that if a mudabbar says to his master: "Set me free now and I will pay you fifty dinars in installments," and the master says: "Alright, you are free, so pay me fifty dinars over five years, ten dinars each year," and the mudabbar agrees to this, then if the master dies after two or three days, the mudabbar will become free, and the fifty dinars will remain as a debt upon him. His testimony will be valid, and all his rights regarding sanctity, inheritance, and legal punishments will be complete, and the death of the master will not reduce anything from those fifty dinars.
