حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ قَابُوسِ بْنِ الْمُخَارِقِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ:
بَعَثَ عَلِيٌّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ عَلَى مِصْرَ، فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ يَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ مُكَاتَبٍ مَاتَ وَتَرَكَ مَالًا وَوَلَدًا، فَكَتَبَ يَأْمُرُهُ [١]فِي الْمُكَاتَبِ: إِنْ كَانَ تَرَكَ وَفَاءً لِمُكَاتَبَتِهِ يُدْعَى مَوَالِيهِ فَيَسْتَوْفُونَ، وَمَا بَقِيَ كَانَ مِيرَاثًا لِوَلَدِهِ

ʿAlī sent Muḥammad b. Abī Bakr to Egypt, and he wrote to him asking about a mukātab (slave contracted to buy his freedom) who had died and left wealth and a child. So he wrote, instructing him [1] regarding the mukātab: If he left enough to fulfil his contract of manumission, his masters are to be called and they take what is owed in full, and whatever remains is an inheritance for his child.
