Sahih Bukhari

The Prophet (SAW) said, "Whoever frees his portion of a common slave should free the slave completely by paying the rest of his price from his money if he has enough money; otherwise the price of the slave is to be estimated and the slave is to be helped to work without hardship till he pays the rest of his price."

The Prophet (SAW) said, "The (reward of) deeds depend on intentions, and every person will get the reward according to what he intends. So, whoever migrated for Allah and His Apostle (SAW), then his migration will be for Allah and His Apostle (SAW), and whoever migrated for worldly benefits or for marrying a woman, then his migration will be for what he migrated for." (See Hadith No. 1, Vol. 1)

When Abu Huraira accompanied by his slave set out intending to embrace Islam they lost each other on the way. The slave then came while Abu Huraira was sitting with the Prophet (SAW). The Prophet (SAW) said, "O Abu Huraira! Your slave has come back." Abu Huraira said, "Indeed, I would like you to witness that I have manumitted him." That happened at the time when Abu Huraira recited (the following poetic verse): 'What a long tedious tiresome night! Nevertheless, it has delivered us from the land of Kufr (disbelief).'

On my way to the Prophet (SAW) I was reciting: 'What a long tedious tiresome night! Nevertheless, it has saved us From the land of Kufr (disbelief).' I had a slave who ran away from me on the way. When I went to the Prophet (SAW) and gave the pledge of allegiance for embracing Islam, the slave showed up while I was still with the Prophet (SAW) who remarked, "O Abu Huraira! Here is your slave!" I said, "I manumit him for Allah's Sake," and so I freed him.

Utba bin Abi Waqqas authorized his brother Sad bin Abi Waqqas to take the son of the slave-girl of Zama into his custody, telling him that the boy was his own (illegal) son. When Allah's Apostle (SAW) went (to Makkah) at the time of the Conquest, Sad took the son of the slavegirl of Zama to Allah's Apostle (SAW) and also brought Abd bin Zama with him and said, "O Allah's Apostle (SAW)! This is the son of my brother Utba who authorised me to take him into my custody." Abd bin Zama said, "O Allah's Apostle (SAW)! He is my brother, the son of Zama's slave-girl and he was born on his bed." Allah's Apostle (SAW) looked at the son of the slave-girl of Zama and noticed much resemblance (to Utba). Allah's Apostle (SAW) said, "It is for you, O Abd bin Zama as he was born on the bed of your father." Allah's Apostle (SAW) then told Sauda bint Zama to observe veil in the presence of the boy as he noticed the boy's resemblance to Utba and Sauda was the wife of the Prophet (SAW).

I bought Barira but her masters put the condition that her Wala would be for them. I told the Prophet (SAW) about it. He said (to me), "Manumit her as her Wala will be for the one who pays the price." So, I manumitted her. The Prophet (SAW) called Barira and gave her the option of either staying with her husband or leaving him. She said, "Even if he gave me so much money, I would not stay with him," and so she preferred her freedom to her husband.
