مُكَاتَبَةٍ بَيْنَ شَرِيكَيْنِ فَيُعْتِقُ أَحَدُهُمَا نَصِيبَهُ كَيْفَ يَصْنَعُ الْخَادِمُ قَالَ تَخْدُمُ الْبَاقِيَ يَوْماً وَ تَخْدُمُ نَفْسَهَا يَوْماً قُلْتُ فَإِنْ مَاتَتْ وَ تَرَكَتْ مَالًا قَالَ الْمَالُ بَيْنَهُمَا نِصْفَانِ بَيْنَ الَّذِي أَعْتَقَ وَ بَيْنَ الَّذِي أَمْسَكَ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Ahmad, from Ahmad Bin Al Hassan Bin Ali, from Amro Bin Saeed, from Musaddaf Bin Sadaqa, from Ammar Al Sabaty, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> regarding a contracted slave girl between two partners, so one of them emancipated his share, how should the maid deal with it?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘She would serve him for the remainder of the (contracted) days, a day for him (the other partner), and he would serve a day for himself (alternatively)’. I said, ‘So if she were to die and leave wealth?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘The wealth is between the two of them, two halves, between the one who emancipated and between the one who did not’.
