2527. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever manumits his portion of a common slave should manumit the slave completely by paying the rest of his price from his money if he has enough money; otherwise the price of the slave is to be estimated and the slave is to be helped to work without hardship till he pays the rest of his price."

2527 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنِ النَّضْرِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ بَشِيرِ بْنِ نَهِيكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ أَعْتَقَ نَصِيبًا - أَوْ شَقِيصًا - فِي مَمْلُوكٍ، فَخَلاَصُهُ عَلَيْهِ فِي مَالِهِ، إِنْ كَانَ لَهُ مَالٌ، وَإِلَّا قُوِّمَ عَلَيْهِ، فَاسْتُسْعِيَ بِهِ غَيْرَ مَشْقُوقٍ عَلَيْهِ» تَابَعَهُ حَجَّاجُ بْنُ حَجَّاجٍ، وَأَبَانُ، وَمُوسَى بْنُ خَلَفٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ اخْتَصَرَهُ شُعْبَةُ
