Commentary
The Anṣārī freed six slaves, whereas according to the Sharī'ah he had the right to free only two. Now everyone of the freed slaves desired to have freedom, but only two of them could get it. This was an issue that needed no witnesses for its solution, and nobody was ready to forgo his right, so it was solved by drawing lots, because there was no other choice for the solution of this issue. So in the light of this narration, such cases can be solved by drawing lots.
