Ishaq ibn Ibrahim narrated from Abd al-Razzaq, from al-Thawri, from Abd al-Rahman ibn Abdullah ibn al-Qasim who said: Ibn Mas'ud was asked about a man who freed his slave at the time of death while having no other property and while having debts. He said: 'He (the freed slave) works to earn his value (to pay off the debts).'
