Muhammad Bin Yahya, form Ahmad Bin Muhammad, and Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, altogether from Ibn Mahboub, from Abdullah Bin Sinan, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah asws having said: ‘A man from the Helpers came over to my asws father asws , so he said, ‘I am afflicted with a grievous matter. There is a slave girl for me which I had slept with. So, one day I slept with her, and went out regarding a need of mine, after having washed from it, and I forgot my expenses. So returned to the house in order to take it, and I found my slave upon her belly. So I counted for her nine months from that day of mine, and the slave girl gave birth’. He asws said: ‘So my asws father asws said to me: ‘It is not befitting for you that you go near her, nor that you should sell her, but spend upon her from your wealth for as long as she is alive. Then bequeath at your death that he (your successor) should spend upon her from your wealth until Allah azwj Makes a way out for her’.

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Ibn Fazzal, from Muhammad Bin Ajlan who said that, ‘A man from the Helpers came over to Abu Ja’far asws , so he said to him asws , ‘I am afflicted with a grievous matter. I fell upon my slave girl, then I went out regarding one of my needs, and I turned back from the road, so I came across my slave between the two legs of the slave girl. So I isolated her, and she became pregnant. Then I place a waiting period of nine months on the slave girl’. So Abu Ja’far asws said to him: ‘Keep the slave girl and do not pursue her, and spend upon her until she dies, or Allah azwj Makes a way out for her. So if there occurs with you an occurrence (of death), so bequeath with the expenditure to be spent upon her from you wealth until Allah azwj Makes a way out for her’. And he (a.s.) said: ‘Whenever you go our from your house so say, ‘In the Name of Allah azwj upon myself, and my children, and my wife, and my wealth’ – three times. Then say, ‘O Allah (s.w.t.)! Bless for us in Your (s.w.t.) Measurement, and (Make us to be) Pleased with Your (s.w.t.) Judgement until we do not love the haste in what You (s.w.t.) Delay, nor (do we love) delay in what You (s.w.t.) Hasten’.
