Bayhaqi 21499 — Clientage goes to the most senior of the freer's

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو نَصْرِ بْنُ قَتَادَةَ، أنبأ أَبُو عَمْرِو بْنُ نُجَيْدٍ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ثنا ابْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، ثنا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ، كَانَ جَالِسًا عِنْدَ أَبَانَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ، فَاخْتَصَمَ إِلَيْهِ نَفَرٌ مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ، وَنَفَرٌ مِنْ بَنِي الْحَارِثِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ، وَكَانَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ تَحْتَ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي الْحَارِثِ بْنِ الْخَزْرَجِ يُقَالُ لَهُ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ كُلَيْبٍ، فَمَاتَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ، وَتَرَكَتْ مَالًا وَمَوَالِيَ، فَوَرِثَهَا ابْنُهَا وَزَوْجُهَا، ثُمَّ مَاتَ ابْنُهَا فَقَالَ وَرَثَةُ ابْنِهَا: لَنَا وَلَاءُ الْمَوَالِي، قَدْ كَانَ ابْنُهَا أَحْرَزَهُ، قَالَ الْجُهَنِيُّونَ: لَيْسَ كَذَلِكَ، إِنَّمَا هُمْ مَوَالِي صَاحِبَتِنَا، فَإِذَا مَاتَ وَلَدُهَا فَلَنَا وَلَاؤُهُمْ وَنَحْنُ نَرِثُهُمْ، فَقَضَى أَبَانُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ لِلْجُهَنِيِّينَ بِوَلَاءِ الْمَوَالِي..
Abdullah bin Abi Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) said that his father related that he was sitting with Aban bin Uthman bin Affan (may Allah have mercy on him) when a dispute between groups from Juhaynah and Banu al-Harith bin al-Khazraj was brought to him. A woman of the Juhaynah tribe was married to a man of Banu al-Harith bin al-Khazraj called Ibrahim bin Kulayb. That woman died. She left wealth and freed slaves, and her heirs were a son and her husband. Then her son also died, and the heirs of her son said: The wala' of the freed slaves is ours; her son had secured it. The Juhanis said: Not so; rather, they are the freed slaves of our woman, and since her child has died, their wala' is ours, and we are their heirs. So Aban bin Uthman (may Allah have mercy on him) ruled the wala' of the freed slaves in favour of the Juhanis.
