حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ يَعْنِي الْعَطَّارَ حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ عَنْ النَّضْرِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ عَنْ بَشِيرِ بْنِ نَهِيکٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ أَعْتَقَ شَقِيصًا فِي مَمْلُوکِهِ فَعَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُعْتِقَهُ کُلَّهُ إِنْ کَانَ لَهُ مَالٌ وَإِلَّا اسْتُسْعِيَ الْعَبْدُ غَيْرَ مَشْقُوقٍ عَلَيْهِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 3937
Abu Hurairah reported the Prophet ﷺ as saying: If anyone emancipates a share in his slave, he should completely emancipate him if he has money; but if he has none, then slave will be required to work (to pay for his freedom), but he must not be overburdened.
