[Machine] A man from the Ansar made a will before his death, and he freed six slaves whom he owned and had no other property besides them. Or he said, he freed six slaves upon his death, whom he owned and had nothing else besides them. The Prophet ﷺ was informed about this and he made a harsh statement about it. Then, he called them and divided them into three parts. He drew lots between them and freed two and released four. 21391. Abu Abdullah al-Hafiz informed us, Abu Amr ibn Abi Ja'far narrated to us, Abdulla ibn Muhammad narrated to us, Ishaaq ibn Ibrahim and Muhammad ibn al-Muthanna said, Abd al-Wahhab al-Thaqafi narrated it. He mentioned it with his chain of narration and its meaning is the same, except that he said in the narration of Ishaaq that a man from the Ansar freed six slaves whom he owned upon his death, and he said in the narration of Muhammad ibn al-Muthanna that a man from the Ansar made a will before his death and he freed six slaves whom he owned and had no other property besides them.
