Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 3|Book 1|Chapter 46
وَ رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَرْوَانَ عَنْهُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: "إِنَّ أَبِي عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ تَرَكَ سِتِّينَ مَمْلُوكاً وَ أَوْصَى بِعِتْقِ ثُلُثِهِمْ فَأَقْرَعْتُ بَيْنَهُمْ فَأَخْرَجْتُ عِشْرِينَ فَأَعْتَقْتُهُمْ".
Muhammad ibn Marwan narrated from Imam عليه السلام who said: "My father, peace be upon him, left sixty slaves and instructed in his will to free one-third of them. So, I cast lots among them and selected twenty, then I freed them."
