50) Chapter: Manumission
This is a contract written by so and so the son of so and so, without compulsion, while he is in good health and in full control of his wealth, in such-and-such month of such and such year, to his Byzantine slave who is called so and so, who at this time is in his possession and owned by him. I have set you free as an act of worship, seeking thereby the great reward of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, granting you complete and definite freedom with no conditions and no right to take you back. You are free for the Face of Allah, and the Hereafter, and neither I nor anyone else has any control over you, except by way of Al-Wala' (loyalty of a freed slave to his former masters), which is to me and my descandents after me.
