Bayhaqi 21759 — The mukatab becoming unable to pay

قَالَ: وَحَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ، ثنا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، ثنا حَفْصٌ، عَنِ الْأَشْعَثِ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ: " لَهُمْ مَا أَخَذُوا مِنْهُ "، يَعْنِي إِذَا لَمْ يُكْمِلْ، فَرُدَّ فِي الرِّقِّ، فَمَا أَخَذَ فَلَهُ ".
Abu al-Zubayr narrates from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "They (the masters) keep what they took from him," meaning: when he does not complete (his contract) and is returned to slavery, whatever (the master) took is his.
