[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Mukatabah (manumission of slaves through a written agreement) is to be done according to what has been fulfilled." The scholar, may Allah have mercy on him, said, "It is narrated from 'Ikrimah, from 'Ali, a mursal (a type of hadith chain in which the tabi'i directly narrates from the Prophet) narration, and it was also narrated by Hammam ibn Zaid and Isma'il ibn Ibrahim from Ayyub, from 'Ikrimah, from the Prophet ﷺ . And Isma'il attributed it to 'Ikrimah. Al-Bukhari, may Allah have mercy on him, said, "And it was narrated by Yahya ibn Abi Kathir, this hadith from 'Ikrimah, from Ibn 'Abbas, from the Prophet ﷺ ." The scholar, may Allah have mercy on him, said, "And there is difference of opinion regarding its elevation (meaning the level of authenticity of this narration)."
