'Imran b. Husain reported that a person who had no other property emancipated six slaves of his at the time of his death. Messenger of Allah ﷺ called for them and divided them into three sections, cast lots amongst them, and set two free and kept four in slavery; and he (the Holy Prophet) spoke severely of him.  

أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَعْتَقَ سِتَّةَ مَمْلُوكِينَ لَهُ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرُهُمْ فَدَعَا بِهِمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَجَزَّأَهُمْ أَثْلاَثًا ثُمَّ أَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ وَأَرَقَّ أَرْبَعَةً وَقَالَ لَهُ قَوْلاً شَدِيدًا  

a man freed six slaves of his when he was dying, and he did not have any wealth apart from them. News of that reached the Prophet and he was angry about that. He said: "I was thinking of not offering the funeral prapyer for him." Then he called the slaves and divided them into three groups. He cast lost among them, then freed two and left four as slaves.  

أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَعْتَقَ سِتَّةً مَمْلُوكِينَ لَهُ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرَهُمْ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَغَضِبَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَقَالَ لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ لاَ أُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ دَعَا مَمْلُوكِيهِ فَجَزَّأَهُمْ ثَلاَثَةَ أَجْزَاءٍ ثُمَّ أَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ وَأَرَقَّ أَرْبَعَةً

"A Man from the Ansar freed six slaves of his upon his death, and he did not have any wealth aside from them. That was conveyed to the Prophet ﷺ, and he said some harsh words about him."

'Imran b. Husain reported that a person who had no other property emancipated six slaves of his at the time of his death. Messenger of Allah ﷺ called for them and divided them into three sections, cast lots amongst them, and set two free and kept four in slavery; and he (the Holy Prophet) spoke severely of him. (Using translation from Muslim 1668a)   

أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَعْتَقَ سِتَّةَ مَمْلُوكِينَ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرُهُمْ فَدَعَاهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَزَّأَهُمْ أَثْلَاثًا ثُمَّ أَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ وَأَرَقَّ أَرْبَعَةً وَقَالَ لَهُ قَوْلًا شَدِيدًا  

[Machine] A man had six slaves and he had no money except for them. So he freed them upon his death. This matter was brought to the Prophet ﷺ , who disliked it. Then he divided them, I think he said into three parts, and he drew lots among them. He freed two and kept four as slaves.  

أَنَّ رَجُلًا كَانَ لَهُ سِتَّةُ أَعْبُدٍ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرُهُمْ فَأَعْتَقَهُمْ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ فَرُفِعَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَكَرِهَ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ جَزَّأَهُمْ أَظُنُّهُ قَالَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَجْزَاءٍ فَأَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ وَأَرَقَّ أَرْبَعَةً  

"عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ قَالَ: أعْتقت امْرَأَةٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ فُتُوفِّيَتْ (* *) أعْبُدًا لَهَا سِتَّةً لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهَا مالٌ غَيْرُهُمْ، فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النبِى ﷺ غَضِبَ، وَقَالَ فِى ذَلِكَ قَوْلًا شَدِيدًا، ثُمَّ أَمَر بِسِتَّةِ قِدَاحٍ فَأَقْرعَ بَيْنَهُمْ، فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنينِ".  

"عَنْ عمْرَانَ قَالَ: تُوفِّى رَجُلٌ وَأعَتَقَ سِتَّة مَمْلُوكِيْنَ لَيْسَ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرهُم، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِىَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: لَوْ أَدْرَكْتُهُ مَا دُفِنَ مَعَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، فأَقْرعَ بَيْنَهُم، فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْن وَاسْتَرقَّ أَرْبَعَةً".  

"عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ قَالَ: أَعْتَقَتِ أمْرأَةٌ [أَوْ رَجُلٌ] سِتَّةَ أَعْبُدٍ لَهَا لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهَا عِنْدَ الْمَوْتِ مَالٌ غَيْرُهُمْ، فَأُتِى في ذَلِكَ النَّبِىُّ ﷺ فَأَقْرعَ بَيْنَهُمْ، فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ وَأَرَقَّ أَرْبَعَةً".
