وَ رَوَى أَبُو اَلْبَخْتَرِيِّ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّ عَلِيّاً عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "لاَ يَجُوزُ فِي اَلْعَتَاقِ اَلْأَعْمَى وَ اَلْأَعْوَرُ وَ اَلْمُقْعَدُ وَ يَجُوزُ اَلْأَشَلُّ وَ اَلْأَعْرَجُ ".

It is narrated by Abu Al-Bakhtari from Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (a.s) from his father, Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (a.s), that Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (a.s) said: "It is not permissible in emancipation (freeing a slave) for the blind, the one-eyed, or the crippled. However, it is permissible for the one with a paralyzed hand or the lame."
