5- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنِ ابْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ كَانَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ فِي الرَّجُلِ الْحُرِّ يَمُوتُ وَلَهُ أُمٌّ مَمْلُوكَةٌ قَالَ تُشْتَرَى مِنْ مَالِ ابْنِهَا ثُمَّ تُعْتَقُ ثُمَّ يُوَرِّثُهَا.
5. Muhammad ibn ’Isma‘il has narrated from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan from Safwan from ibn Muskan from Sulayman ibn Khalid who has narrated the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said that about the case of a free man who dies and leaves behind his mother who is owned by someone, Amir al-Mu’minin would say, ‘She is bought with the legacy of her son, then is set free and made to inherit her son.’”
