حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، قَالَ : قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ :" الْمَوْلَى أَخٌ فِي الدِّينِ وَنِعْمَةٌ، أَحَقُّ النَّاسِ بِمِيرَاثِهِ أَقْرَبُهُمْ مِنْ الْمُعْتِقِ "

Muhammad bin Issa told us, Saeed bin Abdul Rahman told us, Yunus told us, on the authority of Al-Zuhri, he said: The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: The master is a brother in religion and a blessing. The person most deserving of his inheritance is the one closest to him who is freed.”
