Summary
He said: I also heard Malik say: whoever employs a slave without his master's permission for a significant matter, for which such a person usually receives hire, is liable for whatever befalls the slave, if the slave is harmed in anything. If the slave comes out safe and his master claims the hire for what he did, that is his master's right, and this is the practice among us. 1
