"عن عبد الرحمن بن يزيد قال: كان بينى وبين الأسودِ وَأَمِّنَا غلامٌ قد شهد القادسية وأبلى فيها، فأرادوا عِتْقَهُ وكنتُ صغيرًا، فذكر الأسودُ ذلك لعمرَ، فقال عمر: (أعْتقُوا أنتم ويكُونُ عبد الرحمن على نصيبِهِ حتى يرغبَ في مثل ما رغبتم فيه أو يأخذَ نصيبَهُ".
[Machine] There was a young boy between me and Al-Aswad who had witnessed the Battle of Al-Qadisiyah and was injured in it. So they wanted to set him free, and I was young at that time. Al-Aswad mentioned this to Umar, so Umar said, "Set yourselves free, and Abdur Rahman will have his share until he desires something similar to what you desire, or he will take his portion. It is possible that he wants his share of the value." We have narrated this from Umar. This meaning has also been narrated in a similar hadith.
كَانَ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ الْأَسْوَدِ وَأُمِّنَّا غُلَامٌ قَدْ شَهِدَ الْقَادِسِيَّةَ وَأَبْلَى فِيهَا فَأَرَادُوا عِتْقَهُ وَكُنْتُ صَغِيرًا فَذَكَرَ الْأَسْوَدُ ذَلِكَ لِعُمَرَ ؓ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ أَعْتِقُوا أَنْتُمْ وَيَكُونُ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ عَلَى نَصِيبِهِ حَتَّى يَرْغَبَ فِي مِثْلِ مَا رَغِبْتُمْ فِيهِ أَوْ يَأْخُذَ نَصِيبَهُ وَيُحْتَمَلُ أَنْ يُرِيدَ بِهِ نَصِيبَهُ مِنَ الْقِيمَةِ وَقَدْ رُوِّينَا عَنْ عُمَرَ ؓ مَا دَلَّ عَلَى هَذَا وَرُوِيَ فِي مِثْلِ هَذَا الْمَعْنَى حَدِيثٌ مُرْسَلٌ
