قَالَ مُصَنِّفُ هَذَا الْكِتَابِ رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ هَذَانِ الْحَدِيثَانِ مُتَّفِقَانِ وَ لَيْسَا بِمُخْتَلِفَيْنِ وَ خَبَرُ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ فِيمَا قَالَ لِيَضُمَّ إِلَيْهِ وَلَدَهُ يَعْنِي بِالْقِيمَةِ مَا لَمْ يَقَعِ الشَّرْطُ بِأَنَّهُ حُرٌّ.
The compiler of this book (may Allah سبحانه وتعالى have mercy on him) stated: These two narrations are consistent and not contradictory. The narration of Hariz from Zurara, where it says "let him take his child," means he should purchase the child at its value unless a condition was stipulated that the child would be free.
