اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ، ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ، ثنا حِبَّانُ بْنُ مُوسَى، عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ، يَقُولُ فِي الْمُكَاتَبِ يُؤَدِّي صَدْرًا مِنْ كِتَابَتِهِ وَيَعْجِزُ، أَيُرَدُّ رَقِيقًا؟ قَالَ: " سَيِّدُهُ أَحَقُّ بِشَرْطِهِ الَّذِي شَرَطَ ".
Abu al-Zubayr heard Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) saying concerning the mukatab (a slave who has contracted to buy his freedom) who has paid the first part of his contract and then becomes unable to continue: is he to be returned to slavery? He said: "His master has the greater right to the condition that he stipulated."
