Sahih al-Jami al-Saghir — Hadith 1356

«أما بعد فما بال أقوام يشترطون شروطا ليست في كتاب الله ما كان من شرط ليس في كتاب الله فهو باطل وإن كان مائة شرط قضاء الله أحق وشرط الله أوثق وإنما الولاء لمن أعتق»
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"To proceed: What is the matter with people who stipulate conditions that have no basis in the Book of Allah? Any condition that is not in the Book of Allah is utterly void, even if there are a hundred conditions. The decree of Allah is most deserving of being followed, and the condition of Allah is the most binding. And wala' (the right of inheritance that comes from freeing a slave) belongs only to the one who sets free."
