[Machine] A man had freed two slaves when he was about to die, and he had no other property except them. So, this matter was brought to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and he distributed them equally between them, and returned the rest to slavery.
أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَعْتَقَ مَمْلُوكِينَ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ لَيْسَ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرُهُمْ فَرُفِعَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ «فَأَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَأَعْتَقَ مِنْهُمُ اثْنَيْنِ وَرَدَّ بَقِيَّتَهُمْ فِي الرِّقِّ»
A man emancipated six slaved at the time of his death and he had no other property. The Prophet ﷺ was informed about it. He cast lots among them, emancipated two and retained four in slavery. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3961)
أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَعْتَقَ سِتَّةَ أَعْبُدٍ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ لَيْسَ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرَهُمْ فَأَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ وَأَرَقَّ أَرْبَعَةً
[Machine] A man from the Ansar freed six heads (slaves) before his death, and he did not have any wealth apart from them. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ heard about this, he became angry with him. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called him and reprimanded him. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ summoned the slaves and distributed them among themselves; he freed two of them and retained four in slavery.
أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَعْتَقَ رُءُوسًا سِتَّةً عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرُهُمْ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَغْلَظَ لَهُ فَدَعَا بِهِمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ وَرَدَّ أَرْبَعَةً فِي الرِّقِّ
A man who had no other property emancipated six slaves of his at the time of the death. When the Prophet ﷺ was informed about it, he spoke severely of him. He then called them, divided them into three sections, cast lots among them, and emancipated two and kept four in slavery. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3958)
«أَنَّ رَجُلًا كَانَ لَهُ سِتَّةُ أَعْبُدٍ فَأَعْتَقَهُمْ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرُهُمْ فَرُفِعَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَكَرِهَهُ وَجَزَّأَهُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَجْزَاءٍ فَأَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ وَأَرَقَّ أَرْبَعَةً»
[Machine] "That a man freed six of his slaves before his death, and he had no other wealth except them, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ banged his hand between them, freeing two of them and sending back four to slavery."
«أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَعْتَقَ سِتَّةَ مَمْلُوكِينَ لَهُ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرَهُمْ فَأَقْرَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بَيْنَهُمْ فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ وَرَدَّ أَرْبَعَةً فِي الرِّقِّ»
[Machine] A man freed six slaves he had upon his death, and he had no other wealth besides them. So the Messenger of Allah heard about them, struck his hand to his thigh between them, freed two and returned four to slavery.
أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَعْتَقَ سِتَّةً مَمْلُوكِينَ لَهُ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرَهُمْ «فَأَقْرَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَيْنَهُمْ فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ وَرَدَّ أَرْبَعَةً فِي الرِّقِّ»
