[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah, I have bought a slave girl to set her free, and her family insists on her loyalty. He said, free her, for loyalty is only for the one who frees or pays the price. So, she was bought and set free. Then she was given a choice, and she chose herself. She said, if I am given such and such, I would not be with him. Al-Aswad said, and her husband was a free man."
