5660 - وَ رَوَى حَمَّادُ بْنُ عِيسَى عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ اَلْمُخْتَارِ قَالَ : دَخَلَ أَبُو حَنِيفَةَ عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ "مَا تَقُولُ فِي بَيْتٍ سَقَطَ عَلَى قَوْمٍ فَبَقِيَ مِنْهُمْ صَبِيَّانِ أَحَدُهُمَا حُرٌّ وَ اَلْآخَرُ مَمْلُوكٌ لِصَاحِبِهِ فَلَمْ يُعْرَفِ اَلْحُرُّ مِنَ اَلْمَمْلُوكِ" فَقَالَ أَبُو حَنِيفَةَ يُعْتَقُ نِصْفُ هَذَا وَ نِصْفُ هَذَا وَ يُقْسَمُ اَلْمَالُ بَيْنَهُمَا نِصْفَانِ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ "لَيْسَ كَذَلِكَ لَكِنَّهُ يُقْرَعُ بَيْنَهُمَا فَمَنْ أَصَابَتْهُ اَلْقُرْعَةُ فَهُوَ اَلْحُرُّ وَ يُعْتَقُ هَذَا فَيُجْعَلُ مَوْلًى لَهُ".
Hadith.5660 - Hammad ibn Isa narrated from Al-Husayn ibn Al-Mukhtar, who said:
Abu Hanifah entered upon Abu Abdullah , and Abu Abdullah
asked him:
"What do you say about a house that collapsed on a group of people, leaving behind two boys - one of them is free and the other is a slave belonging to the free one - but it is not known which is the free one and which is the slave?"
Abu Hanifah replied: "Half of this one and half of that one should be freed, and the wealth should be divided equally between them."
Abu Abdullah
said: "It is not so. Rather, a draw (lot) should be cast between them, and the one upon whom the lot falls is the free one, and the other is freed and made his client (mawla)."
