Hadith 47
۞
Hadith.3467 - Ibn Mahbub narrated from Ali ibn Ri'ab, from Burayd ibn Mu'awiyah, who said
I asked Abu Ja'far Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as), about a man who made his wealthy slave mudabbar (to be freed after his death). The mudabbar, with the permission of his master, bought a bondwoman who bore him children. Then the mudabbar died before his master.
Imam (as) said: "I believe that all the property, possessions, or estates left by the mudabbar belong to the one who made him mudabbar. As for the mother of his children, she remains a slave to the one who made him mudabbar. However, I see that her children take the same status as their father-they are mudabbar. Therefore, when the one who made their father mudabbar dies, they will be freed."
3467 - وَ رَوَى اِبْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رِئَابٍ عَنْ بُرَيْدِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ دَبَّرَ مَمْلُوكاً لَهُ تَاجِراً مُوسِراً فَاشْتَرَى اَلْمُدَبَّرُ جَارِيَةً بِأَمْرِ مَوْلاَهُ فَوَلَدَتْ مِنْهُ أَوْلاَداً ثُمَّ إِنَّ اَلْمُدَبَّرَ مَاتَ قَبْلَ سَيِّدِهِ فَقَالَ "أَرَى أَنَّ جَمِيعَ مَا تَرَكَ اَلْمُدَبَّرُ مِنْ مَتَاعٍ أَوْ ضِيَاعٍ فَهُوَ لِلَّذِي دَبَّرَهُ وَ أَرَى أَنَّ أُمَّ وَلَدِهِ رِقٌّ لِلَّذِي دَبَّرَهُ وَ أَرَى أَنَّ وُلْدَهَا مُدَبَّرُونَ كَهَيْئَةِ أَبِيهِمْ فَإِذَا مَاتَ اَلَّذِي دَبَّرَ أَبَاهُمْ فَهُمْ أَحْرَارٌ".
