حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ الْحَکَمِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ الْأَسْوَدِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ اشْتَرَيْتُ بَرِيرَةَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اشْتَرِيهَا فَإِنَّ الْوَلَائَ لِمَنْ أَعْتَقَ وَأُهْدِيَ لَهَا شَاةٌ فَقَالَ هُوَ لَهَا صَدَقَةٌ وَلَنَا هَدِيَّةٌ قَالَ الْحَکَمُ وَکَانَ زَوْجُهَا حُرًّا وَقَوْلُ الْحَکَمِ مُرْسَلٌ وَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ رَأَيْتُهُ عَبْدًا
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 6751
Narrated `Aisha: I bought Barira (a female slave). The Prophet said (to me), "Buy her as the Wala' is for the manumitted." Once she was given a sheep (in charity). The Prophet said, "It (the sheep) is a charitable gift for her (Barira) and a gift for us." Al-Hakam said, "Barira's husband was a free man." Ibn `Abbas said, 'When I saw him, he was a slave."
