6758. Narrated Al-Aswad: 'Āishah رضي الله عنها said, "I bought Barīra and her masters stipulated that the Walā' would be for them.” ‘Aishah mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ and he said, “Manumit her, as the Walā' is for the one who gives the silver (i.e., pays the price for freeing the slave).” ‘Aishah added, “So I manumitted her”. After that, the Prophet ﷺ called her (Barīra) and gave her the choice to go back to her husband or leave him. She said, “If he gave me so much, and so much (money) I would not stay with him.” So she selected her own self (i.e., refused to go back to her husband).”

6758 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، قَالَتْ: اشْتَرَيْتُ بَرِيرَةَ، فَاشْتَرَطَ أَهْلُهَا وَلاَءَهَا. فَذَكَرَتْ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: «أَعْتِقِيهَا، فَإِنَّ الوَلاَءَ لِمَنْ أَعْطَى الوَرِقَ» قَالَتْ: فَأَعْتَقْتُهَا. قَالَتْ: فَدَعَاهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَخَيَّرَهَا مِنْ زَوْجِهَا، فَقَالَتْ: لَوْ أَعْطَانِي كَذَا وَكَذَا مَا بِتُّ عِنْدَهُ، فَاخْتَارَتْ نَفْسَهَا قَالَ: وَكَانَ زَوْجُهَا حُرًّا
