حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا وَکِيعٌ عَنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنْ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ مَضَی فِي بَرِيرَةَ ثَلَاثُ سُنَنٍ خُيِّرَتْ حِينَ أُعْتِقَتْ وَکَانَ زَوْجُهَا مَمْلُوکًا وَکَانُوا يَتَصَدَّقُونَ عَلَيْهَا فَتُهْدِي إِلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَيَقُولُ هُوَ عَلَيْهَا صَدَقَةٌ وَهُوَ لَنَا هَدِيَّةٌ وَقَالَ الْوَلَائُ لِمَنْ أَعْتَقَ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 2076
It was narrated that' Aishah said: "Three Sunan were established because of Barirah: She was given the choice (of whether to remain married) when she was freed, and her husband was a slave; they used to give her charity and she used to give it as a gift to the Prophet P.B.U.H and he would say: 'It is charity for her and a gift for us,' and he said, the 'Wald' is for the one who set the slave free.'" (Sahih)
