Chapter on Judgment by Lot
Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 3|Book 1|Chapter 37
وَ رَوَى حَمَّادُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ اَلْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي رَجُلٍ قَالَ أَوَّلُ مَمْلُوكٍ أَمْلِكُهُ فَهُوَ حُرٌّ فَوَرِثَ سَبْعَةً جَمِيعاً قَالَ "يُقْرِعُ بَيْنَهُمْ وَ يُعْتِقُ اَلَّذِي خَرَجَ سَهْمُهُ".
Hammad ibn Uthman narrated from Ubaydullah ibn Ali al-Halabi, who said that Abu Abdillah عليه السلام said: "If a man says, 'The first slave I acquire shall be free,' and then he inherits seven slaves altogether, lots are drawn among them, and the one whose lot is drawn shall be freed."
