3. Abu Ali al-Al-Ash‘ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan ibn Yahya from ‘Is ibn al-Qasim ibn Muhammad who has narrated the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said that ‘A’ishah once said to the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, ‘People of Burayrah have set her guardianship a condition.’ The Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has issued this decree. ‘Guardianship rests with the one who buys one’s freedom.’”
