وَأَمَّا مَنۢ بَخِلَ وَٱسْتَغْنَىٰ
But as for him who hoardeth and deemeth himself independent,

Sahih al-Bukhari
Manumission of Slaves
Chapter: If one manumits a male slave owned by two persons
Narrated Ibn `Umar:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "He who manumits his share of a slave and has money sufficient to free the remaining portion of that slave's price (justly estimated) then he should manumit him (by giving the rest of his price to the other co-owners)." Nafi` added, "Otherwise the slave is partially free." Aiyub is not sure whether the last statement was said by Nafi` or it was a part of the Hadith.
