موطا امام مالك رواية يحييٰ
Muwatta Imam Malik (Riwayat Yahya)
كتاب المكاتبBook: On the Explanation of Mukatib (Contracted Slave)
بَابُ وَلَاءِ الْمُكَاتَبِ إِذَا أَعْتَقَWala' of the Mukatab if he is freed
Hadith 1300Q8
قَالَ مَالِكٌ : وَمِمَّا يُبَيِّنُ ذَلِكَ أَيْضًا أَنَّهُمْ إِذَا أَعْتَقَ أَحَدُهُمْ نَصِيبَهُ ثُمَّ عَجَزَ الْمُكَاتَبُ لَمْ يُقَوَّمْ عَلَى الَّذِي أَعْتَقَ نَصِيبَهُ مَا بَقِيَ مِنَ الْمُكَاتَبِ وَلَوْ كَانَتْ عَتَاقَةً قُوِّمَ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى يَعْتِقَ فِي مَالِهِ كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللّٰهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : ” مَنْ أَعْتَقَ شِرْكًا لَهُ فِي عَبْدٍ قُوِّمَ عَلَيْهِ قِيمَةَ الْعَدْلِ. فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ عَتَقَ مِنْهُ مَا عَتَقَ.“ ¤
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said that this is also evidence that if a person frees his share and then the mukatab becomes free, the one who freed his share will not have to pay the price of the remaining shares. If this was considered emancipation, then according to the hadith, he would have to pay the price of the shares of the others.
