Al-Adab Al-Mufrad — Hadith #46740

Musa told us, he said: Abu Awanah told us, he said: Firas told us, on the authority of Abu Salih, on the authority of Zazan Abi Umar, he said: We were with Ibn Umar, So he called a servant of his who had beaten him, and he uncovered his back and said: Does it hurt you? He said: No. So he freed him, then picked up a stick from the ground. He said: I have no reward in it that weighs the weight of this stick. So I said: O Abu Abdul Rahman, why do you say this? He said: I heard the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace. He or she said: Whoever strikes his slave but does not come to him, or slaps his face, his expiation is to free him.
