حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَوْنٍ، وَمُسَدَّدٌ، قَالاَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ فِرَاسٍ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ زَاذَانَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ: مَنْ لَطَمَ عَبْدَهُ أَوْ ضَرَبَهُ حَدًّا لَمْ يَأْتِهِ، فَكَفَّارَتُهُ عِتْقُهُ.
Ibn 'Umar said, "I heard the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, say, 'The expiation for someone who slaps his slave or beats
him more than he deserves is to set him free.'"
Hilal ibn Yasaf said, "We used to sell linen in the house of Suwayd
ibn Muqarrin. A slavegirl came out and said something to one of the men
and that man slapped her. Suwayd ibn Muqarrin asked him, 'Did you slap
her face? We were seven and we only had a single servant. Then one of us
slapped her and the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, ordered
him to set her free.'"
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي سَلَمَةُ بْنُ كُهَيْلٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ مُقَرِّنٍ قَالَ: لَطَمْتُ مَوْلًى لَنَا فَفَرَّ، فَدَعَانِي أَبِي فَقَالَ لَهُ: اقْتَصَّ، كُنَّا وَلَدَ مُقَرِّنٍ سَبْعَةً، لَنَا خَادِمٌ، فَلَطَمَهَا أَحَدُنَا، فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ: مُرْهُمْ فَلْيُعْتِقُوهَا، فَقِيلَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم: لَيْسَ لَهُمْ خَادِمٌ غَيْرَهَا، قَالَ: فَلْيَسْتَخْدِمُوهَا فَإِذَا اسْتَغْنَوْا خَلُّوا سَبِيلَهَا.
Mu'awiya ibn Muqarrin said, "I slapped a mawla of mine and he fled.
Then my father called me and said, 'I will tell you a story. We, the sons
of Muqarrin, were seven, and we had one servant. Then one of us slapped
her and that was mentioned to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace. He said, 'Order them to set her free.' The Prophet,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was told. 'She is the only servant
they have.' He said, 'Then let them hire her and when they no longer need
her, let her go on her way.'"
حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: مَرَّ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِدَابَّةٍ قَدْ وُسِمَ يُدَخِّنُ مَنْخِرَاهُ، قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم: لَعَنَ اللَّهُ مَنْ فَعَلَ هَذَا، لاَ يَسِمَنَّ أَحَدٌ الْوَجْهَ وَلاَ يَضْرِبَنَّهُ.
Jabir said, "The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace,
passed by an animal which had been branded and its nostrils were smoking.
The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'Allah curses
any person who does this. No one should mark the face nor strike it.'"
