باب فِي الْوَلاَءِ

English narration

Narrated by عبد الله بن عمر العدوي

Narrated Ibn Umar: Aishah, mother of believers (ra), intended to buy a slave-girl to set her free. Her people said: We shall sell her to you on one condition that we shall inherit from her. Aishah mentioned it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said: That should not prevent you, for the right of inheritance belongs to the one who has set a person free.

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، قَالَ : قُرِئَ عَلَى مَالِكٍ وَأَنَا حَاضِرٌ ، قَالَ مَالِكٌ : عَرَضَ عَلَيَّ نَافِعٌ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا أُمَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَرَادَتْ أَنْ تَشْتَرِيَ جَارِيَةً تَعْتِقُهَا ، فَقَالَ أَهْلُهَا : نَبِيعُكِهَا عَلَى أَنَّ وَلَاءَهَا لَنَا ، فَذَكَرَتْ عَائِشَةُ ذَاكَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ "

لَا يَمْنَعُكِ ذَلِكَ فَإِنَّ الْوَلَاءَ لِمَنْ أَعْتَقَ
