Chapter on a Muslim Killing a Dhimmi, a Slave, a Mudabbar, or a Mukatab, or Them Killing a Muslim
وَ سَأَلَ حُمْرَانُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنْ رَجُلٍ ضَرَبَ مَمْلُوكاً لَهُ فَمَاتَ مِنْ ضَرْبِهِ قَالَ "يُعْتِقُ رَقَبَةً".
Humran asked Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام about a man who struck his slave, and the slave died as a result of the beating. Imam عليه السلام replied: "He must free a slave."
