Sulaiman bin Yasar reports: Once I was sitting with Sayyiduna Zaid bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him), when a young man from the Ansar came to him and said: I have a paternal cousin, for whom I am the guardian. She has freed her slave-girl as a mudabbar, and she (the cousin) has no wealth other than this slave-girl. So Sayyiduna Zaid said: As long as (your cousin) is alive, maintain ties of kinship with her. The narrator named Abu Bakr said: This hadith is "gharib" (rare).
