What is the ruling when partners conditionally free their share of a slave?
General Chapter
Al-Mughni
Book of Manumission
Primary text
If each partner separately tells a slave, 'When you enter the house, my share of you is free,' and the slave then enters the house, the slave is freed from all partners simultaneously. This ruling applies whether the declarations were made at the same time or at different times, because the manumission of their respective shares occurs at one moment, even if the conditions were suspended at different times.
