سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ جَعَلَ جَارِيَتَهُ هَدْياً لِلْكَعْبَةِ كَيْفَ يَصْنَعُ فَقَالَ إِنَّ أَبِي أَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ قَدْ جَعَلَ جَارِيَتَهُ هَدْياً لِلْكَعْبَةِ فَقَالَ لَهُ قَوِّمِ الْجَارِيَةَ أَوْ بِعْهَا ثُمَّ مُرْ مُنَادِياً يَقُومُ عَلَى الْحِجْرِ فَيُنَادِي أَلَا مَنْ قَصُرَتْ بِهِ نَفَقَتُهُ أَوْ قُطِعَ بِهِ أَوْ نَفِدَ طَعَامُهُ فَلْيَأْتِ فُلَانَ بْنَ فُلَانٍ وَ مُرْهُ أَنْ يُعْطِيَ أَوَّلًا فَأَوَّلًا حَتَّى يَنْفَدَ ثَمَنُ الْجَارِيَةِ .


Translation

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Bunan Bin Muhammad, from Musa Bin Al Qasim, (It has been narrated) from Ali son of Ja’far<sup>asws</sup>, from his brother<sup>asws</sup> Abu Al-Hassan<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup> about a man who made his slave girl to be a gift for the Kabah. What should he do?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘A man came over to my<sup>asws</sup> father<sup>asws</sup> and he had made his slave girl to be a gift to the Kabah. So he<sup>asws</sup> said to him: ‘Evaluate the slave girl, or sell her. Then instruct a caller to stand upon the rock, so he would call out: ‘Indeed! The one who is short with his expenditure, or has been cut-off with (by bandits), or his food is depleted, so let him come to so and so, son of so and so!’ And, instruct him that he should give to the first one first until the price of the slave girl is depleted’.
