أَخْبَرَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الضَّحَّاکُ بْنُ مَخْلَدٍ عَنْ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرًا يَقُولُ کَتَبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَی کُلِّ بَطْنٍ عُقُولَةً وَلَا يَحِلُّ لِمَوْلًی أَنْ يَتَوَلَّی مُسْلِمًا بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِهِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 4844
Jabir said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم ruled that every clan should take part in paying the blood money, and it is not permissible for a freed slave to take a Muslim (other than the one who freed him) as his Mawla (patron) without the permission (of his former master who set him free).” (Sahih)
