English translation

[4299] 30 - (...) It was narrated from Zadân that Ibn 'Umar called a slave of his and he saw marks on his back. He said to him: "Have I caused you pain?" He said: "No." He said: "You are free." Then he picked up something from the ground and said: "I will not have any reward for it, not even the weight of this. I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say: 'Whoever beats a slave without him having done anything to deserve it, or slaps him, his expiation is to manumit him.'"

Arabic text

30 - (1657) وحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَابْنُ بَشَّارٍ، وَاللَّفْظُ لِابْنِ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ فِرَاسٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ ذَكْوَانَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ زَاذَانَ، أَنَّ ابْنَ عُمَرَ، دَعَا بِغُلَامٍ لَهُ فَرَأَى بِظَهْرِهِ أَثَرًا، فَقَالَ لَهُ: أَوْجَعْتُكَ؟ قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ: فَأَنْتَ عَتِيقٌ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ أَخَذَ شَيْئًا مِنَ الْأَرْضِ، فَقَالَ: مَا لِي فِيهِ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ مَا يَزِنُ هَذَا، إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «مَنْ ضَرَبَ غُلَامًا لَهُ حَدًّا لَمْ يَأْتِهِ، أَوْ لَطَمَهُ، فَإِنَّ كَفَّارَتَهُ أَنْ يُعْتِقَهُ»،
