3284. It was narrated from Abū Hurairah that a man brought a black slave-woman to the Prophet ﷺ, and said: "O Messenger of Allāh, I have to free a believing slave. He said to her: 'Where is Allāh?' and she pointed at the sky with her finger. He said to her: 'Who am I?' She pointed to the Prophet ﷺ, and to the sky, meaning: 'You are the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ.' He said: 'Set her free, for she is a believer.'" (Da'if)
3284 - حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ الْجَوْزَجَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي الْمَسْعُودِيُّ، عَنْ عَوْنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِجَارِيَةٍ سَوْدَاءَ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ عَلَيَّ رَقَبَةً مُؤْمِنَةً، فَقَالَ لَهَا: «أَيْنَ اللَّهُ؟» فَأَشَارَتْ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ بِأُصْبُعِهَا، فَقَالَ لَهَا: «فَمَنْ أَنَا؟» فَأَشَارَتْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَإِلَى السَّمَاءِ يَعْنِي أَنْتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ، فَقَالَ: «أَعْتِقْهَا فَإِنَّهَا مُؤْمِنَةٌ»
