The Prophet said, “Whoever manumits his share of a jointly possessed slave, it is imperative for
him to get that slave manumitted completely by paying the remaining price, and if he does not have

be allowed to work and earn the amount that will manumit him (without overburdening him)”.

Narrated Jabir bin ‘Abdullah:
“Allah’s Apostle sent an army towards the east coast and appointed Abu ‘Ubaida bin Al-Jarrah as
their chief, and the army consisted of three-hundred men including myself. We marched on till we
reached a place where our food was about to finish. Abu- ‘Ubaida ordered us to collect all the jour –
ney food and it was collected. My (our) journey food was dates. Abu ‘Ubaida kept on giving us our
daily ration in small amounts from it, till it was exhausted. The share of everyone of us used to be
one date only.” I said, “How could one date benefit you?” Jabir replied, “We came to know its value
when even that too finished.” Jabir added, “When we reached the sea-shore, we saw a huge fish
which was like a small mountain. The army ate from it for eighteen days. Then Abu ‘Ubaida ordered
that two of its ribs be fixed and they were fixed in the ground. Then he ordered that a she-camel be
ridden and it passed under the two ribs (forming an arch) without touching them.”

told him about it, and he said, “How would you survive after slaughtering your camels?” Then he
went to the Prophet and said, “O Allah’s Apostle! How would they survive after slaughtering their
camels?” Allah’s Apostle ordered ‘Umar, “Call upon the people to bring what has remained of their
food.” A leather sheet was spread and al I the journey food was collected and heaped over it. Allah’s
Apostle stood up and invoked Allah to bless it, and then directed all the people to come with their
utensils, and they started taking from it till all of them got what was sufficient for them. Allah’s
Apostle then said, “I testify that None has the right to be worshipped but Allah, and I am His Apostle. “
