Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا أَسْوَدُ حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا دَبَّرَ عَبْدًا لَهُ وَعَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ فَبَاعَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي دَيْنِ مَوْلَاهُ
English Translation
Aswad narrated to us, Sharik narrated to us, from Salamah ibn Kuhayl, from 'Ata', from Jabir (رضي الله عنه) that a man set his slave free upon his death (through tadbir — a conditional emancipation), and he had debts. So the Prophet ﷺ sold the slave to settle the debt of his master.
