حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ هِلَالَ بْنَ يِسَافٍ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ مُقَرِّنٍ، قَالَ: كُنَّا نَبِيعُ الْبَزَّ فِي دَارِ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ مُقَرِّنٍ، قَالَ: فَخَرَجَتْ جَارِيَةٌ لِسُوَيْدٍ، فَكَلَّمَتْ رَجُلًا مِنَّا فَسَبَّتْهُ،، ، فَلَطَمَ وَجْهَهَا، فَقَالَ سُوَيْدٌ: لَطَمْتَهَا لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي وَإِنِّي لَسَابِعُ سَبْعَةٍ مِنْ إِخْوَتِي مَا لَنَا إِلَّا خَادِمٌ، فَعَمَدَ أَحَدُنَا فَلَطَمَهَا " فَأَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِعِتْقِهَا " (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Suwaid bin Muqarrin (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man slapped a slave girl belonging to the family of Suwaid. Suwaid (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him, "Do you not know that it is forbidden to strike the face? We were seven brothers and had only one servant. One of us once slapped her, so the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) ordered us to set her free." The brothers said, "We have no other servant besides her." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Then continue to take service from her, and when you no longer need her, set her free."
