باب الْمُكَاتَبِ
Sunan Ibn Majah 2520
It was narrated from Umm Salamah that the Prophet (ﷺ) said
“If anyone of you (women) has a Mukatab, and he has enough (wealth) to pay off (his contact of manumission), she must veil herself from him.”حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ نَبْهَانَ، - مَوْلَى أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ - عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، أَنَّهَا أَخْبَرَتْ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنَّهُ قَالَ " إِذَا كَانَ لإِحْدَاكُنَّ مُكَاتَبٌ وَكَانَ عِنْدَهُ مَا يُؤَدِّي فَلْتَحْتَجِبْ مِنْهُ " .
