Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ أَعْتَقَ أَبُو مَذْكُورٍ غُلَامًا لَهُ يُقَالُ لَهُ يَعْقُوبُ الْقِبْطِىُّ عَنْ دُبُرٍ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ أَلَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرُهُ قَالُوا لَا قَالَ مَنْ يَشْتَرِيهِ مِنِّي فَاشْتَرَاهُ نُعَيْمُ بْنُ النَّحَّامِ خَتَنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ بِثَمَانِ مِائَةٍ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْفِقْهَا عَلَى نَفْسِكَ فَإِنْ كَانَ فَضْلٌ فَعَلَى أَهْلِكَ فَإِنْ كَانَ فَضْلٌ فَعَلَى أَقَارِبِكَ فَإِنْ كَانَ فَضْلٌ فَهَاهُنَا وَهَاهُنَا وَهَاهُنَا.
English Translation
Abd al-Razzaq told us, Sufyan informed us, from Abu al-Zubayr, from Jabir, who said: Abu Madhkur freed a slave of his called Ya'qub the Copt, to take effect after his death. This reached the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and he said: Does he have any other property? They said: No. He said: Who will buy him from me? Nu'aym ibn al-Nahham, the son-in-law of Umar ibn al-Khattab, bought him for eight hundred. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Spend it on yourself; and if there is a surplus, then on your family; and if there is a surplus, then on your relatives; and if there is a surplus, then here, and here, and here.
