Mishkat al-Masabih 3392

Jabir said that a man of the Ansar declared that a slave would be free after his death, but he had no other property, so when the Prophet (ﷺ) heard of that he said, “Who will buy him from me ?” and Nu'aim b. an-Nahham bought him for eight hundred dirhams. A version by Muslim says Nu'aim b. ‘Abdallah al-‘Adawi bought him for eight hundred dirhams which he brought to the Prophet (ﷺ) who, when he had handed them over to the man, said, “Spend first on yourself giving yourself sadaqa: if anything is left over give it to your family; if anything is left over when they have received something, give it to your relatives; and if anything is left over when they have received something, do thus and thus,” meaning that it should be distributed in front of him, on his right and on his left. (Bukhari and Muslim.)
