Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا جُوَيْرِيَةُ بْنُ أَسْمَاءَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ مَنْ أَعْتَقَ شِرْكًا لَهُ فِي مَمْلُوكٍ وَجَبَ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يُعْتِقَ كُلَّهُ، إِنْ كَانَ لَهُ مَالٌ قَدْرَ ثَمَنِهِ يُقَامُ قِيمَةَ عَدْلٍ وَيُعْطَى شُرَكَاؤُهُ حِصَّتَهُمْ وَيُخَلَّى سَبِيلُ الْمُعْتَقِ ‏"‏‏.‏

Translation

Ibn Umar reported that the Prophet said: “Whoever frees his share in an enslaved person must free the whole person. If he has enough wealth to cover the price, a fair valuation is made, his partners are paid their shares, and the freed person is released.”
