3937. It was narrated from Abān, meaning Al-‘Aṭṭār, who said: “Qatādah narrated to us, from An-Nadr bin Anas, from Bashīr bin Nahik, from Abū Hurairah, who said: “The Prophet ﷺ said: ‘Whoever manumits his share of a slave, he has to manumit him completely if he has wealth, otherwise he may ask the slave to work in order to pay off the remaining portion, without overburdening him.’” (Sahih)

Arabic text

3937 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ يَعْنِي الْعَطَّارَ، حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ، عَنِ النَّضْرِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ بَشِيرِ بْنِ نَهِيكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلّى الله عليه وسلم: «مَنْ أَعْتَقَ شَقِيصًا فِي مَمْلُوكِهِ فَعَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُعْتِقَهُ كُلَّهُ إِنْ كَانَ لَهُ مَالٌ، وَإِلَّا اسْتُسْعِيَ الْعَبْدُ غَيْرَ مَشْقُوقٍ عَلَيْهِ»
