AHMAD 19932:
from ʿImrān b. Ḥuṣayn —
[Machine] A man once freed six slaves he owned, but the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ intervened among them and freed two, and asked the man to make the remaining four slaves free as well. Muhammad ibn Sireen said, "If I hadn't been informed that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said it, I would have considered it my own opinion."
أحمد ١٩٩٣٢:
عن عمران بن حصين —
أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَعْتَقَ سِتَّةَ أَعْبُدٍ لَهُ فَأَقْرَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَيْنَهُمْ فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ وَأَرَقَّ أَرْبَعَةً قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سِيرِينَ لَوْ لَمْ يَبْلُغْنِي أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَهُ لَجَعَلْتُهُ رَأْيِي
