حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ أَخْبَرَنَا يَزِيدُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ زُرَيْعٍ ح و حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ وَهَذَا لَفْظُهُ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ النَّضْرِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ عَنْ بَشِيرِ بْنِ نَهِيکٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ مَنْ أَعْتَقَ شِقْصًا لَهُ أَوْ شَقِيصًا لَهُ فِي مَمْلُوکٍ فَخَلَاصُهُ عَلَيْهِ فِي مَالِهِ إِنْ کَانَ لَهُ مَالٌ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَکُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ قُوِّمَ الْعَبْدُ قِيمَةَ عَدْلٍ ثُمَّ اسْتُسْعِيَ لِصَاحِبِهِ فِي قِيمَتِهِ غَيْرَ مَشْقُوقٍ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد فِي حَدِيثِهِمَا جَمِيعًا فَاسْتُسْعِيَ غَيْرَ مَشْقُوقٍ عَلَيْهِ وَهَذَا لَفْظُ عَلِيٍّ

سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 3938

Abu Hurairah reported the Prophet ﷺ as saying: If anyone emancipates his share in a slave, he is to be completely emancipated by his money if he has money. But if he has no money, a fair price for the slave should be fixed, and the slave is required to work for his master according to the proportion of his price, but he must not be overburdened. Abu Dawud said: In the version of both the narrators the words are "he will be required to work and must not be overburdened". This is the version of Ali.
