سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ مَمْلُوكٍ أُعْتِقَ سَائِبَةً قَالَ يَتَوَلَّى مَنْ شَاءَ وَ عَلَى مَنْ تَوَلَّاهُ جَرِيرَتُهُ وَ لَهُ مِيرَاثُهُ قُلْتُ فَإِنْ سَكَتَ حَتَّى يَمُوتَ قَالَ يُجْعَلُ مَالُهُ فِي بَيْتِ مَالِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Muhammad Bin Isa Bin Ubeyd, from Yunus, from Hisham Bin Salim, from Suleyman Bin Khalid, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup> about a slave who emancipated a slave unconditionally. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘His guardian would be whoever he so like, and upon the one who is his guardian would be his crimes, and for him would be his inheritance’. I said, ‘So if it remains such until he dies (without a guardian)?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘His wealth would be made to be in the public treasury of the Muslims’.
