5494 - وَ رَوَى اَلْعَلاَءُ بْنُ رَزِينٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ : سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ حَضَرَهُ اَلْمَوْتُ فَأَعْتَقَ غُلاَمَهُ وَ أَوْصَى بِوَصِيَّةٍ فَكَانَ أَكْثَرَ مِنَ اَلثُّلُثِ قَالَ "يُمْضَى عِتْقُ اَلْغُلاَمِ وَ يَكُونُ اَلنُّقْصَانُ فِيمَا بَقِيَ".
Hadith.5494 - Al-Alaa ibn Razin narrated from Muhammad ibn Muslim from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq who said:
I asked Imam
about a man who, when death approached him, freed his slave and made a will, but the total of his bequests exceeded one-third of his estate.
Imam
replied: "The emancipation of the slave is to be carried out, and any reduction should be applied to what remains (of the bequests beyond the one-third limit)."
