قَضَى أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) بِالْيَمَنِ فِي قَوْمٍ انْهَدَمَتْ عَلَيْهِمْ دَارٌ لَهُمْ فَبَقِيَ مِنْهُمْ صَبِيَّانِ أَحَدُهُمَا مَمْلُوكٌ وَ الْآخَرُ حُرٌّ فَأَسْهَمَ بَيْنَهُمَا فَخَرَجَ السَّهْمُ عَلَى أَحَدِهِمَا فَجَعَلَ الْمَالَ لَهُ وَ أَعْتَقَ الْآخَرَ .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Hammad Bin Isa, from Hareyz, (It has been narrated) from one of the two (5<sup>th</sup> or 6<sup>th</sup> Imam<sup>asws</sup>) having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen<sup>asws</sup> judged at Al-Yemen regarding one people upon whom a house of theirs had collapsed. So there remained two young children, one of them being a slave, the other a free one. So he<sup>asws</sup> drew lots between the two of them, so the lot came upon one of the two, so he<sup>asws</sup> made the wealth to be for him, and emancipated (liberated) the other one’.
