The original case concerns an interdicted safih who emancipates a person he legally owned in the historical system of enslavement; it is not the earlier chapter's case of an already pledged slave.
Under the two disciples' stated ruling, emancipation takes effect because this particular legal act is not readily reversed like a commercial sale. The historical compensatory duty called sa'y addresses the property's value. This is a study of historical law, not an endorsement or authorization of human ownership today.
