[Machine] Anas ibn Malik, if the child is one of the children of the people of Medina, she would come and take the hand of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he would not remove his hand from her hand until she goes wherever she wants.  

أحمد:١٢٧٨٠حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ وَحَجَّاجٌ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ فِي حَدِيثِهِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَلِيَّ بْنَ زَيْدٍ قَالَ قَالَ

أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ إِنْ كَانَتِ الْوَلِيدَةُ مِنْ وَلَائِدِ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ لَتَجِيءُ فَتَأْخُذُ بِيَدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَلَا يَنْزِعُ يَدَهُ مِنْ يَدِهَا حَتَّى تَذْهَبَ بِهِ حَيْثُ شَاءَتْ

“If a female slave among the people of Al-Madinah were to take the hand of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he would not take his hand away from hers until she had taken him wherever she wanted in Al-Madinah so that her needs may be met.”  

ابن ماجة:٤١٧٧حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ وَسَلْمُ بْنُ قُتَيْبَةَ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

إِنْ كَانَتِ الأَمَةُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ لَتَأْخُذُ بِيَدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَمَا يَنْزِعُ يَدَهُ مِنْ يَدِهَا حَتَّى تَذْهَبَ بِهِ حَيْثُ شَاءَتْ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ فِي حَاجَتِهَا

إِنْ كَانَتِ الْخَادِمُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ وَهِيَ أَمَةٌ تَأْخُذُ بِيَدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَمَا يَنْزِعُ يَدَهُ مِنْهَا حَتَّى تَذْهَبَ بِهِ حَيْثُ شَاءَتْ
