أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا الْمُغِيرَةُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ رُومَانَ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ کَانَ زَوْجُ بَرِيرَةَ عَبْدًا
سنن نسائی · Hadith 3485
It was narrated from Aishah that she wanted to buy BarIrah, but her masters stipulated that her Wala’ should go to them. She mentioned that to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم and he said: “Buy her and set her free, for Al-Wala’ is to the one who sets the slave free.” Some meat was brought and it was said: “This is some of that which was given in charity to BarIrah.” He said: “It is charity for her and a gift for us.” And the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم gave her the choice, and her husband was a free man. (Sahih)
