[Machine] A man said that a person was appointed as a servant to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who did not possess any wealth besides him. After some time, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ took the slave and sold him, then he gave the owner the price of the slave.  

الكبرى للنسائي:٤٩٨٢أَخْبَرَنِي مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ عَنِ الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَطَاءٌ أَنَّ جَابِرًا حَدَّثَهُ

قَالَ جَعَلَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ غُلَامًا لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرُهُ حُرًّا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ فَأَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْعَبْدُ «فَبَاعَهُ ثُمَّ أَعْطَى صَاحِبَهُ ثَمَنَهُ»
