ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ قَوْلَ جَابِرٍ إِنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَعْتَقَ غُلَامًا لَهُ أَرَادَ بِهِ أَعْتَقَ غُلَامًا لَهُ عَنْ دُبُرٍ دُونَ الْعِتْقِ الْبَتَاتِ

[Machine] It is said that Abu Mazkoor appointed a servant for himself. When the Prophet ﷺ heard about it, he said, "He has someone else's wealth." They replied, "No." He said, "Who will buy him from me?" So, Nuaim Al-Nahham bought him for eight hundred dirhams. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Spend it on yourself. If there is any surplus, then on your relatives. If there is still surplus, then here and there."  

ابن حبّان:٤٩٣١أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَرُوبَةَ بِحَرَّانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ الْيَمَامِيُّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ

يُقَالُ لَهُ أَبُو مَذْكُورٍ دَبَّرَ غُلَامًا لَهُ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «لَهُ مَالُ غَيْرِهِ» قَالُوا لَا قَالَ «مَنْ يَشْتَرِيهِ مِنِّي» فَاشْتَرَاهُ نُعَيْمٌ النَّحَّامُ بِثَمَانِ مِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ وَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَنْفِقْهَا عَلَى نَفْسِكَ فَإِنْ كَانَ فَضْلًا فَعَلَى أَقَارِبِكَ فَإِنْ كَانَ فَضْلًا فَهَاهُنَا وَهَاهُنَا»

a man from among the Ansar who was called Abu (Madhkur) stated that a slave of his who was called Ya'qub was to be set free after he died, and he did not own any other property apart from him. The Messenger of Allah called for him (the slave) to be brought and he said: "Who will buy him?" Nu'aim bin 'Abdullah bought him for eight hundred dirhams, and he gave it to him and said: "If one of you is poor, let him start with himself; if there is anything left over, (let him give it) to his dependents; if there is anything left over, (let him give it) to his relatives; and if there is anything left over, (let him give it) here and there."

A man of the Ansar called Abu Madhkur declared that his slave called Ya'qub would be free after his death, but he had no other property. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called him and said: Who will buy him ? Nu'aim b. 'Abd Allah b. al-Nahham bought him for eight hundred dirhams. When he handed them over to him, he (Prophet) said: If any of you is poor, he should begin from himself ; if anything is left over, give it to your family; if anything is left over, give it to your relatives ; if anything is left over (when they received something), then here and here.

[Machine] "When Dubur heard this, he informed the Prophet ﷺ who said, 'Does he have no wealth other than this?' They replied, 'No.' The Prophet ﷺ asked, 'Who will buy it from me?' Nu'aym ibn Nahham, Omar ibn al-Khattab's confederate, bought it for eight hundred. Then the Prophet ﷺ said, 'Spend it on yourself, and if there is any surplus, spend it on your family, and if there is any surplus, spend it on your close relatives, and if there is any surplus, spend it here, here, and here.'"
