حديث عَائِشَةَ، زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، قَالَتْ: كَانَ فِي بَرِيرَةَ ثَلَاثُ سُنَنٍ: إِحْدَى السُّنَنِ أَنَّهَا أُعْتِقَتْ فَخُيِّرَتْ فِي زَوْجِهَا، وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: الْوَلَاءُ لِمَنْ أَعْتَقَ وَدَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَالْبُرْمَةُ تَفُورُ بِلَحْمٍ، فَقُرِّبَ إِلَيْهِ خُبْزٌ وَأُدْمٌ مِنْ أُدْمِ الْبَيْتِ؛ ⦗١٣٠⦘ فَقَالَ: أَلَمْ أَرَ الْبُرْمَةَ فِيهَا لَحْمٌ قَالُوا: بَلَى، وَلكِنْ ذَلِكَ لَحْمٌ تُصُدِّقَ بِهِ عَلَى بَرِيرَةَ، وَأَنْتَ لَا تَأْكُلُ الصَّدَقَةَ؛ قَالَ: عَلَيْهَا صَدَقَةٌ وَلَنَا هَدِيَّةٌ.

A'isha Narrated from:

Three traditions were established concerning that in which Barîra was involved: When she was manumitted, she was given the option to keep her husband or leave him; Allâh’s Messenger ﷺ said, “The Walâ ’ [1] is for the one who manumits.”Once Allâh’s Messenger ﷺ entered the house while some meat was being cooked in a pot, but only bread and some soup of the house were placed before him. He said, "I don't see the pot containing meat." They said, "Yes, but that meat was given to Barîra in charity (by someone), and you do not eat what is given in charity." The Prophet ﷺ said, "That meat is a charity for her, but for us it is a present." ( Sahih Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 202, Vol. 7 )
