The Chapters
on Manumission of Slaves from Sunan Ibn Majah
2512 It was
narrated from Jabir that the Messenger of Allah (saw) sold a Mudabbar. (Sahih)
2513 It was
narrated that Jabir bin ‘Abdullah said: “A man among us promised freedom to a
slave after his death, and he did not have any property other than him (this
slave). So the Prophet (saw) sold him, and Ibn (Nahham), a man from Banu ‘Adi,
bought him.
2514 It was
narrated from Ibn ‘Umar that the Prophet (saw) said: “The Mudabbar is part of
the one third of the estate.” (Da’if)
Ibn Majah said: I heard ‘Uthman – meaning Ibn Abu Shaibah
– say: “This is a mistake,” meaning the Hadith: “The Mudabbar is part of the
one third of the estate.” Abu ‘Abdullah (Ibn Majah) said: “There is no basis
for it.”
2515 It was
narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said: “Any man whose
slave woman bears him a child, she will be free after he dies.” (Da’if)
2516 It was
narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas said: “Mention was made of the mother of Ibrahim in
the presence of the Messenger of Allah (saw), and he said: ‘Her son set her
free.’” (Da’if)
2517 Jabir bin
‘Abdullah was heard to say: “We used to sell our slave women and the mothers of
our children (Umahat Awladina) when the Prophet (saw) was still living among
us, and we did not see anything wrong with that.” (Sahih)
2518 It was
narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said: “There are
three who are all entitled to Allah’s help: the one who fights in the cause of
Allah; the Mukatab who wants to pay (the price of his freedom); and the one who
gets married seeking chastity.” (Sahih)
2519 It was
narrated from ‘Amr bin Shu’aib, from his father, from his grandfather that the
Messenger of Allah (saw) said: “Any slave who has made a contract to buy his
freedom for one hundred Uqiyyah and pays it all except ten Uqiyyah; he is still
a slave.” (One Uqiyyah is equal to 40 Dirham.) (Hasan)
2520 It was narrated
from Umm Salamah that the Prophet (saw) said: “If anyone of you (women) was a
Mukatab, and he has enough (wealth) to pay off (his contract of manumission),
she must veil herself from him.” (Hasan)
2521 It was
narrated from Hisham bin ‘Urwah, from his father, about ‘Aishah, the wife of
the Prophet (saw) – that Barirah came to her when she was Mukatabah, and her
masters had written a contract of manumission for nine Uqiyyah. She (‘Aishah)
said: “If your masters wish I will pay them that in one sum, and the right of
inheritance will belong to me.”
He said: “So she went to her masters and told them about
that, but they insisted that the right of inheritance should belong to them.
‘Aishah mentioned that to the Prophet (saw) and he said: ‘Do it.’ Then the Prophet
(saw) stood up and addressed the people. He praised and glorified Allah, then
he said: ‘What is the matter with some people who stipulated conditions that
are not in the Book of Allah? Every condition that is not in the Book of Allah
is invalid, even if there are one hundred conditions. The Book of Allah is more
deserving of being followed and the conditions of Allah are more binding. And
the Wala’ belongs to the one who manumits (the slave).’” (Sahih)
2522 It was
narrated that Shurahbil bin Simt said: I said to Ka’b: O Ka’b bin Murrah, tell
us a Hadith from the Messenger of Allah (saw), but be careful. He said: I heard
the Messenger of Allah (saw) say: “Whoever frees a Muslim man, he will be his
ransom from the Fire; each of his bones will suffice (as a ransom) for each of
his bones. Whoever frees two Muslim women, they will be his ransom from the
Fire; each of their two bones will suffice (as a ransom) for each of his
bones.” (Da’if)
2523 It was
narrated that Abu Dharr said: “I said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, which slave is
best?’ He said: ‘The one who is most precious to his master and most valuable
in price.’” (Sahih)
