٤٩۔ كِتَابُ النَّفَقَاتِ
[Machine] "That the image is prohibited? I saw myself as one of the seventh of the Prophet Muhammad's brothers. We only had a servant, and one of us slapped him, so the Prophet Muhammad commanded him to free him."
أَنَّ الصُّورَةَ مُحَرَّمَةٌ؟ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي سَابِعَ سَبْعَةِ إِخْوَةٍ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مَا لَنَا إِلَّا خَادِمٌ فَلَطَمَهُ أَحَدُنَا فَأَمَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَعْتِقَهُ
[Machine] Did his face get slapped by Suwayd bin Muqarrin? I saw myself as the seventh of seven and we only have one servant, so one of us slapped her. So the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , ordered that she be freed. This is the wording of the Hadith of Adam.
لَهُ سُوَيْدُ بْنُ مُقَرِّنٍ ؓ لَطَمْتَ وَجْهَهَا؟ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي سَابِعَ سَبْعَةٍ وَمَا لَنَا إِلَّا خَادِمٌ فَلَطَمَهَا بَعْضُنَا فَأَمَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ يُعْتِقُهَا لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ آدَمَ
I slapped a slave belonging to us and then fled away. I came back just before noon and offered prayer behind my father. He called him (the slave) and me and said: Do as he has done to you. He granted pardon. He (my father) then said: We belonged to the family of Muqarrin during the lifetime of Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him. and had only one slave-girl and one of us slapped her. This news reached Allah's Apostle ﷺ and he said: Set her free. They (the members of the family) said: There is no other servant except she. Thereupon he said: Then employ her and when you can afford to dispense with her services, then set her free. (Using translation from Muslim 1658a)
لَطَمْتُ مَوْلًى لَنَا فَهَرَبْتُ ثُمَّ جِئْتُ قُبَيْلَ الظُّهْرِ فَصَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ أَبِي فَدَعَاهُ وَدَعَانِي ثُمَّ قَالَ اقْتَصَّ مِنْهُ فَعَفَا ثُمَّ قَالَ كُنَّا بَنِي مُقَرِّنٍ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْسَ لَنَا إِلَّا خَادِمٌ وَاحِدٌ فَلَطَمَهَا أَحَدُنَا فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَعْتِقُوهَا قَالُوا لَيْسَ لَهُمْ خَادِمٌ غَيْرُهَا قَالَ فَلْيَسْتَخْدِمُوهَا وَإِذَا اسْتَغْنَوْا عَنْهَا فَخَلُّوا سَبِيلَهَا
