قَضَى أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) فِي مُكَاتَبٍ قُتِلَ قَالَ يُحْسَبُ مَا أُعْتِقَ مِنْهُ فَيُؤَدَّى دِيَةُ الْحُرِّ وَ مَا رَقَّ مِنْهُ فَدِيَةُ الْعَبْدِ.
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from Muhammad Bin Isa, from Yunus, from Aasim Bin Humeyd, from Muhammad Bin Qays, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Amir Al-Momineen<sup>asws</sup> judged regarding a contracted slave who was killed. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘It would be counted what (proportion) he was free from it, so he (the killer) would pay the wergild of the free, and what (proportion) he was still enslaved from it, is a ransom of the slave’.
