Narrated by جابر بن عبد الله الأنصاري

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ، حَدَّثَنَا سَلَمَةُ بْنُ كُهَيْلٍ ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : "

بَلَغَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ أَعْتَقَ غُلَامًا لَهُ عَنْ دُبُرٍ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرَهُ ، فَبَاعَهُ بِثَمَانِ مِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ ، ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَ بِثَمَنِهِ إِلَيْهِ
