هِيكٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِذَا أَفْلَسَ الرَّجُلُ فَوَجَدَ غَرِيمُهُ مَتَاعَهُ عِنْدَ الْمُفْلِسِ بِعَيْنِهِ فَهُوَ أَحَقُّ بِهِ

English Translation
'Affan narrated to us, Hammad ibn Salamah narrated to us, from Qatadah, from al-Nadr ibn Anas, from Bashir ibn Nahik, from Abu Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه) that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Whoever frees his share of a slave, then it is upon him to free the rest from his wealth if he has enough money. If he does not have enough money, the slave is to be given a fair price, then the slave works to pay off the remainder without being overburdened.'
