Is it permissible for the Imam to take from the wealth of Muslims to free slaves?

The questioner : ...

The Shaykh : Why would he take?
It is not permissible for the Imam to take from the wealth of Muslims to free slaves, unless there is a pressing need for it, such as if there are captives who need to be ransomed. If he ransoms them, they are not considered slaves.
