English translation

3940. It was narrated from Mālik, from Nāfi', from 'Abdullāh bin 'Umar, that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "If a person manumits his share of a slave, a fair price should be determined for him, and he should give his partners their shares, and thus the slave will be manumitted. Otherwise he is manumitted only to the extent of the share that was manumitted." (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Arabic text

3940 - حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ أَعْتَقَ شِرْكًا لَهُ فِي مَمْلُوكٍ أُقِيمَ عَلَيْهِ قِيمَةُ الْعَدْلِ فَأَعْطَى شُرَكَاءَهُ حِصَصَهُمْ وَأُعْتِقَ عَلَيْهِ الْعَبْدُ، وَإِلَّا فَقَدْ عَتَقَ مِنْهُ مَا عَتَقَ»

Commentary

One who manumits his share has been persuaded to pay for the share of his partner because it is a deed of great superiority.
