سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ تَزَوَّجَ عَبْدُهُ بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِهِ فَدَخَلَ بِهَا ثُمَّ اطَّلَعَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ مَوْلَاهُ فَقَالَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى مَوْلَاهُ إِنْ شَاءَ فَرَّقَ بَيْنَهُمَا وَ إِنْ شَاءَ أَجَازَ نِكَاحَهُمَا فَإِنْ فَرَّقَ بَيْنَهُمَا فَلِلْمَرْأَةِ مَا أَصْدَقَهَا إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ اعْتَدَى فَأَصْدَقَهَا صَدَاقاً كَثِيراً وَ إِنْ أَجَازَ نِكَاحَهُ فَهُمَا عَلَى نِكَاحِهِمَا الْأَوَّلِ فَقُلْتُ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ع فَإِنَّ أَصْلَ النِّكَاحِ كَانَ عَاصِياً فَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ع إِنَّمَا أَتَى شَيْئاً حَلَالًا وَ لَيْسَ بِعَاصٍ لِلَّهِ إِنَّمَا عَصَى سَيِّدَهُ وَ لَمْ يَعْصِ اللَّهَ إِنَّ ذَلِكَ لَيْسَ كَإِتْيَانِ مَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ نِكَاحٍ فِي عِدَّةٍ وَ أَشْبَاهِهِ.

Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Musa Bin Bakr, from Zurara, from Abu Ja’far asws , said, ‘I asked him asws about a man who got his slave married without his permission. So he slept with her, then notified his master upon that. So he asws said: ‘That is up to his master, if he so desires to, he effects separation between them, and if he so desires to he allows their marriage. So if he were to separate between the two, so for the woman would be whatever her dower was except if it is excessive, so her dower is a lot of dower’ and if he allows his marriage, so they would both be upon their first marriage’. So I said to Abu Ja’far asws , ‘It is as if the marriage was (an act of) disobedience’. So Abu Ja’far asws said: ‘But rather, he came to something Permissible, and he did not disobey Allah azwj . But rather, he disobeyed his master, and did not disobey Allah azwj . That is not like them both coming to what Allah azwj Mighty and Majestic has Prohibited unto him from a marriage, regarding a waiting period and such like’.
