[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked about a man who has intercourse with his wife's slave-girl. He said, "If he dislikes her, then she is a free woman and she has the same right over him as she had over him. And if he is pleased with her, then she is his slave-girl and she has the same right over him as she had over him."

سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يُوَاقِعُ جَارِيَةَ امْرَأَتِهِ؟ قَالَ إِنْ أَكْرَهَهَا فَهِيَ حُرَّةٌ وَلَهَا عَلَيْهِ مِثْلُهَا وَإِنْ طَاوَعَتْهُ فَهِيَ أَمَتُهُ وَلَهَا عَلَيْهِ مِثْلُهَا

"The Prophet passed judgment concerning a man who had intercourse with his wife's slave woman: 'If he forced her, then she is free, and he has to give her mistress a similar slave as a replacement; if she obeyed him in that, then she belongs to him, and he has to give her mistress a similar slave as a replacement.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3363)

[AI] I heard a woman ask the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about a slave-girl she owned: her husband had taken her with him on a journey and had intercourse with her. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “If he compelled her, then she is free, and he owes one like her; but if she consented to him, then she is his slave-girl, and he owes one like her.”

[Machine] About the Prophet ﷺ regarding a man who had sexual intercourse with his wife's slave-girl, he said: "If he forced her to do so, then she is free, and he must free a slave-girl like her. But if she willingly agreed, then she is a slave-girl and he must free a slave-girl like her." This was narrated by Ma'mar from Qatadah.
