The master's annulment of the contract of manumission

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, that he should conceal it.

The Shaykh:
The contract of manumission.

The questioner:
Whenever he wishes.

The Shaykh:
No, the contract of manumission is a binding contract from the master's side; it is not permissible for him to annul it. The one who is permitted to annul it is the slave, who emancipates himself.
