Narrator: Abu Hurairah

English translation
Abu Hurairah reported the Prophet (ﷺ) as saying: If anyone emancipates his share in a slave, he is to be completely emancipated by his money if he has money. But if he has no money, a fair price for the slave should be fixed, and the slave is required to work for his master according to the proportion of his price, but he must not be overburdened. Abu Dawud said: In the version of both the narrators the words are "he will be required to work and must not be overburdened". This is the version of 'Ali
বাংলা অনুবাদ
। আবূ হুরাইরাহ (রাঃ) সূত্রে বর্ণিত। নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ যে ব্যক্তি যৌথ মালিকানাভুক্ত কৃতদাসের নিজের অংশ আযাদ করে, সে সম্পদশালী হলে তার কর্তব্য হলো তাকে পূর্ণভাবে আযাদ করার ব্যবস্থা করা। আর সে সম্পদশালী না হলে গোলামটির সঠিক মূল্য নিরূপণ করার পর গোলামের দ্বারা সাধ্য মোতাবেক কাজ করাবে। অতঃপর তার পারিশ্রমিকের অর্থ দ্বারা মূল্য দ্বারা আদায় করবে। ইমাম আবূ দাঊদ (রহঃ) বলেন, উভয় বর্ণনাকারী বক্তব্য হলোঃ ‘তাকে দিয়ে সহজসাধ্য পরিশ্রমশ করাবে।’ সহীহ।
