وحَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الصَّمَدِ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، قَالَ : قَالَ لِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُنْكَدِرِ : مَا اسْمُكَ ؟ ، قُلْتُ : شُعْبَةُ ، فَقَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو شُعْبَةَ الْعِرَاقِيُّ ، عَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ مُقَرِّنٍ : " أَنَّ جَارِيَةً لَهُ لَطَمَهَا إِنْسَانٌ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ : سُوَيْدٌ أَمَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ الصُّورَةَ مُحَرَّمَةٌ ، فَقَالَ : لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي وَإِنِّي لَسَابِعُ إِخْوَةٍ لِي مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَمَا لَنَا خَادِمٌ غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ ، فَعَمَدَ أَحَدُنَا فَلَطَمَهُ فَأَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ نُعْتِقَهُ " ،
Suwaid bin Muqarrin reported that he had a slave-girl and a person (one of the members of the family) slapped her, whereupon Suwaid said to him: Don't you know that it is forbidden to strike the face. He said: You see I was the seventh one amongst my brothers during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) , and we had but only one servant. One of us got enraged and slapped him. Thereupon Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) commanded us to set him free.
