٦٩۔ كِتَابُ الْوَلَاءِ
[Machine] "And her loyalty to us, so she mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and he said, 'That should not stop you, as loyalty is only to those who have been emancipated.' And Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz informed us that Abu Abdullah Muhammad ibn Ya'qub narrated to us that Jafar ibn Muhammad and Muhammad ibn Abdus Salam informed them that Yahya ibn Yahya said, 'I read to Malik and he mentioned it in a similar way.'"
وَلَاءَهَا لَنَا فَذَكَرَتْ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَا يَمْنَعْكِ ذَلِكَ إِنَّمَا الْوَلَاءُ لِمَنْ أَعْتَقَ 21449 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أنبأ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ السَّلَامِ قَالَا ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ فَذَكَرَهُ بِنَحْوِهِ
Aisha said, "Barira came to me and said, 'I have agreed with my masters to pay them nine Uqiyas (of gold) (in installments) one Uqiya per year; please help me.' I said, 'I am ready to pay the whole amount now provided your masters agree that your Wala' will be for me.' So, Barira went to her masters and told them about that offer but they refused to accept it. She returned, and at that time, Messenger of Allah ﷺ was sitting (present). Barira said, 'I told them of the offer but they did not accept it and insisted on having the Wala'.' The Prophet ﷺ heard that." ʿAisha narrated the whole story to the Prophet. He said to her, "Buy her and stipulate that her Wala' would be yours as the Wala' is for the manumitter." ʿAisha did so. Then Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up in front of the people, and after glorifying Allah he said, "Amma Baʿdu (i.e. then after)! What about the people who impose conditions which are not in Allah's Book (Laws)? Any condition that is not in Allah's Book (Laws) is invalid even if they were one hundred conditions, for Allah's decisions are the right ones and His conditions are the strong ones (firmer) and the Wala' will be for the manumitter." (Using translation from Bukhārī 2168)
أَهْلِيَ عَلَى تِسْعِ أَوَاقٍ فِي كُلِّ عَامٍ أُوقِيَّةٌ فَأَعِينِينِي فَقَالَتْ لَهَا عَائِشَةُ إِنْ أَحَبَّ أَهْلُكِ أَنْ أَعُدَّهَا لَهُمْ وَيَكُونَ وَلَاؤُكِ لِي فَعَلْتُ فَذَهَبَتْ بَرِيرَةُ إِلَى أَهْلِهَا يَعْنِي فَقَالَتْ لَهُمْ ذَلِكَ فَأَبَوْا ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهَا فَجَاءَتْ مِنْ عِنْدِ أَهْلِهَا وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ جَالِسٌ فَقَالَتْ إِنِّي قَدْ عَرَضْتُ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَأَبَوْا إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ الْوَلَاءُ لَهُمْ فَسَمِعَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلَهَا فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ عَائِشَةُ ؓ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خُذِيهَا وَاشْتَرِطِي لَهُمُ الْوَلَاءَ فَإِنَّ الْوَلَاءَ لِمَنْ أَعْتَقَ فَفَعَلَتْ عَائِشَةُ ؓ ثُمَّ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي النَّاسِ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَمَّا بَعْدُ فَمَا بَالُ رِجَالٍ يَشْتَرِطُونَ شُرُوطًا لَيْسَتْ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ؟ مَا كَانَ مِنْ شَرْطٍ لَيْسَ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ فَهُوَ بَاطِلٌ وَإِنْ كَانَ مِائَةَ شَرْطٍ قَضَاءُ اللهِ أَحَقُّ وَشَرْطُهُ أَوْثَقُ وَإِنَّمَا الْوَلَاءُ لِمَنْ أَعْتَقَ
[Machine] The messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The allegiance is for the one who possesses the blessing."
رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْوَلَاءُ لِمَنْ وَلِيَ النِّعْمَةَ
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ bought it because authority belongs only to the one who pays the price and the one who receives the blessing.
النَّبِيُّ ﷺ اشْتَرِيهَا فَإِنَّمَا الْوَلَاءُ لِمَنْ أَعْطَى الثَّمَنَ وَوَلِيَ النِّعْمَةَ
