أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ عَقْلُ الْعَبْدِ فِي ثَمَنِهِ مِثْلُ عَقْلِ الْحُرِّ فِي دِيَتِهِ قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ وَكَانَ رِجَالٌ يَقُولُونَ سِوَى ذَلِكَ إِنَّمَا هُوَ سِلْعَةٌ يُقَوَّمُ لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ وَهْبٍ
[Machine] "And this is what Sulaiman bin Yassar said, and it is the meaning of the statement of Shurayh, Ash-Sha'bi, and An-Nakha'i."
وَقَالَ ذَلِكَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ يَسَارٍ وَهَذَا مَعْنَى قَوْلِ شُرَيْحٍ وَالشَّعْبِيِّ وَالنَّخَعِيِّ
