5742 - وَ رَوَى عَاصِمُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ : "قَضَى أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فِي مُكَاتَبٍ مَاتَ وَ لَهُ مَالٌ فَقَالَ "يُحْسَبُ مَالُهُ بِقَدْرِ مَا أُعْتِقَ مِنْهُ لِوَرَثَتِهِ وَ بِقَدْرِ مَا لَمْ يُعْتَقْ يُحْسَبُ لِأَرْبَابِهِ اَلَّذِينَ كَاتَبُوهُ مِنْ مَالِهِ" ".
Hadith.5742 - Asim ibn Humaid narrated from Muhammad ibn Qays from Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir who said: "The Commander of the Faithful
ruled regarding a mukatab (a slave under a contract for freedom) who died and had wealth.
Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib
said: 'His wealth should be divided in proportion to what part of him had been freed for his heirs, and the portion that was not yet freed should be calculated for his masters who had entered into the contract with him from his wealth.'"
