Hadith.5261 - Hammad narrated from Al-Halabi that Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said regarding a man who intentionally kills his slave
"I prefer that he frees a slave, fasts for two consecutive months, and feeds sixty needy people, and then he should repent after that."
5261 - وَ رَوَى حَمَّادٌ عَنِ اَلْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ
أَنَّهُ قَالَ: فِي رَجُلٍ يَقْتُلُ مَمْلُوكَهُ مُتَعَمِّداً قَالَ "يُعْجِبُنِي أَنْ يُعْتِقَ رَقَبَةً وَ يَصُومَ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ وَ يُطْعِمَ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِيناً ثُمَّ تَكُونَ اَلتَّوْبَةُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ".
