[Machine] It is said that he had a honorable status of forty thousand. He went to Kufa and worked with his slaves until he freed fifteen thousand of them. Then a man came to him and said, "Are you crazy? You torture yourself here while Abdullah ibn Umar buys slaves with his right and left hands and then frees them. Go back to him and tell him that you have failed." So, the man came to him with his document and said, "O Abu Abdur Rahman, I have failed and this is my document, erase it." He replied, "No, but you erase it if you want." So, he erased it and Abdullah ibn Umar's eyes filled with tears. He said, "Go, you are free." The man said, "May Allah rectify you, be kind to my son." He said, "They are free." The man said, "May Allah rectify you, be kind to my mother and my children." He said, "They are also free." So, he freed all five of them in one place.
