4517. It was narrated from Ibn Abi 'Arūbah, from Qatādah, with the chain of Shu'bah, similarly, and he added: "Then Al-Hasan forgot this Hadīth and he used to say: 'A free man should not be killed (in retaliation) for a slave.'" (Hasan)

Arabic text

4517 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، بِإِسْنَادِ شُعْبَةَ مِثْلَهُ زَادَ ثُمَّ إِنَّ الْحَسَنَ نَسِيَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ فَكَانَ يَقُولُ: «لَا يُقْتَلُ حُرٌّ بِعَبْدٍ»
