حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ هُوَ ابْنُ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو غَالِبٍ
عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ قَالَ أَقْبَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَعَهُ غُلامَانِ فَوَهَبَ أَحَدُهُمَا لِعَلِيٍّ صَلَوَاتُ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ وَقَالَ لاَ تَضْرِبْهُ فَإِنِّي نُهِيتُ عَنْ ضَرْبِ أَهْلِ الصَّلاَةِ وَإِنِّي رَأَيْتُهُ يُصَلِّي مُنْذُ أَقْبَلْنَا وَأَعْطَى أَبَا ذَرٍّ غُلاَمًا وَقَالَ اسْتَوْصِ بِهِ مَعْرُوفًا فَأَعْتَقَهُ فَقَالَ مَا فَعَلَ؟ قَالَ أَمَرْتَنِي أَنْ أَسْتَوْصِي بِهِ خَيْرًا فَأَعْتَقْتُهُ
Translation
✧ From Abū Umāma who said: The Prophet ﷺ came forward with two servant boys. He gave one of them to ʿAlī ﷺ and said, 'Do not strike him, for I have been forbidden to strike the people of prayer, and I saw him praying since we came.' He gave a servant boy to Abū Dharr and said, 'Treat him well.' So he freed him. Then he asked, 'What did you do?' He replied, 'You commanded me to treat him well, so I freed him.'
