أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ، أنبأ أَبُو نَصْرٍ الْعِرَاقِيُّ، ثنا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، ثنا سُفْيَانُ، ثنا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ الْفَرَّاءُ، عَنْ أَبِي لَيْلَى الْكِنْدِيِّ، أَنَّ سَلْمَانَ الْفَارِسِيَّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أَرَادَ مِنْهُ مَمْلُوكٌ لَهُ أَنْ يُكَاتِبَهُ، فَقَالَ: " أَعِنْدَكَ شَيْءٌ؟ "، قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ: " مِنْ أَيْنَ لَكَ؟ "، قَالَ: أَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ، فَأَبَى أَنْ يُكَاتِبَهُ وَقَالَ: " تُطْعِمُنِي مِنْ غُسَالَةِ النَّاسِ ".
Abu Layla al-Kindi says that a slave wished to make a contract of manumission (mukatabah) with Sayyiduna Salman al-Farisi (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) asked him: Do you have anything? He said: No. Sayyiduna Salman al-Farisi (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: Then where will you get it from? He replied: By begging from people. Sayyiduna Salman al-Farisi (may Allah be pleased with him) refused to make the contract with him and said: You would feed me the filth of people.
