أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ نُصَيْرٍ الْخُلْدِيُّ، ثنا مُوسَى بْنُ هَارُونَ، ثنا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، ثنا الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَجِيدِ بْنِ ⦗٥٢٣⦘ سُهَيْلٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَعْتَقَ غُلَامًا لَهُ عَنْ دُبُرٍ، وَكَانَ مُحْتَاجًا، فَذَكَرَ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَدَعَاهُ، فَقَالَ: " أَعْتَقْتَ غُلَامَكَ؟ " فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " أَنْتَ أَحْوَجُ إِلَيْهِ "، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " مَنْ يَشْتَرِيهِ؟ " فَقَالَ نُعَيْمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ: أَنَا، فَاشْتَرَاهُ، فَأَخَذَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَمَنَهُ، فَدَفَعَهُ إِلَى صَاحِبِهِ. رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ قُتَيْبَةَ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ.
Ata bin Abi Rabah narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a man of the Ansar freed his slave as a mudabbar while he himself was in need. This was mentioned to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so he (peace and blessings be upon him) sent for him and asked: "Have you freed your slave?" He said: Yes. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "But you are the one in need of him." Then he said: "Who will buy him from me?" Sayyiduna Nu'aym bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I will. So he bought him, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took the price and gave it to his owner.
