Muhammad Trades Two of His Black Slaves for a Muslim. “Jabir eported: There came a slave and pledged allegiance to Allah’s Apostle on migration; he did not know that he was a slave. Then there came his master and demanded him back, whereupon he said: Sell him to me. And he bought him for two black slaves, and he did not afterwards take allegiance from anyone until he had asked him whether he was a slave (or a free man)” - Sahih Muslim 1602 Muhammad on Slavery: “A man amongst us declared that his slave would be freed after his death. The Prophet called for that slave and sold him. The slave died the same year.” - Sahih Bukhari 2534 “‘Imran b. Husain reported that a person who had no other property emancipated six slaves of his at the time of his death. Mohammed called for them and divided them into three sections, cast lots amongst them, and set two free and kept four in slavery; and he spoke severely of him.” - Sahih Muslim 1668a “Maimuna bint Al-Harith told him that she manumitted a slave-girl without taking the permission of the Prophet. On the day when it was her turn to be with the Prophet, she said, ‘Do you know, O Allah’s Messenger, that I have manumitted my slave-girl?’ He said, ‘Have you really?’ She replied in the affirmative. He said, ‘You would have got more reward if you had given her (i.e. the slave-girl) to one of your maternal uncles.’” - Sahih Bukhari 2592 “We used to sell our slave women and the mothers of our children (Umahat Awaldina) when the Prophet was still living among us, and we did not see anything wrong with that.” - Sunan Ibn Majah 2517
