ahmad:24086Sufyān > al-Zuhrī

Ibn Zam'ah and Sa'd (Ibn Abu Waqqas) referred a dispute to the Prophet concerning the son of Zam'ah's slave woman. Sa'd said : " O Messenger of Allah my brother (Utbah bin Abu Waqqas) left instructions in his will that when I come to Makkah, I should look for the son of the slave woman of Zam'ah and take him into my care." 'Abd bin Zam’ah said: "He is my brother and the son of the slave woman of my father; he was born on my father's bed." The Prophet ffi saw that he resembled 'Utbah, and said: "He belongs to you, O 'Abd bin Zam'ah. The child is for the bed. Observe Hijab before him, O Saudah." (sahih) (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2004)   

أحمد:٢٤٠٨٦حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ

عَنْ عُرْوَةَعَنْ عَائِشَةَ اخْتَصَمَ عَبْدُ بْنُ زَمْعَةَ وَسَعْدُ بْنُ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي ابْنِ أَمَةِ زَمْعَةَ قَالَ عَبْدٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَخِي ابْنُ أَمَةِ أَبِي وُلِدَ عَلَى فِرَاشِ أَبِي وَقَالَ سَعْدٌ أَوْصَانِي أَخِي إِذَا قَدِمْتَ مَكَّةَ فَانْظُرْ ابْنَ أَمَةِ زَمْعَةَ فَاقْبِضْهُ فَإِنَّهُ ابْنِي فَرَأَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ شَبَهًا بَيِّنًا بِعُتْبَةَ قَالَ هُوَ لَكَ يَا عَبْدُ الْوَلَدُ لِلْفِرَاشِ وَاحْتَجِبِي مِنْهُ يَا سَوْدَةُ

Abu bin Zamʿa and Saʿd bin Abi Waqqas carried the case of their claim of the (ownership) of the son of a slave-girl of Zamʿa before the Prophet. Saʿd said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! My brother, before his death, told me that when I would return (to Mecca), I should search for the son of the slave-girl of Zamʿa and take him into my custody as he was his son." 'Abu bin Zamʿa said, 'the is my brother and the son of the slave-girl of my father, and was born or my father's bed." The Prophet ﷺ noticed a resemblance between ʿUtba and the boy but he said, "O 'Abu bin Zamʿa! You will get this boy, as the son goes to the owner of the bed. You, Sauda, screen yourself from the boy."

A’ishah said “Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas and ‘Abd bin Zamah disputed amongst themselves about the (relationship of the) son of the slave girl of Zam’ah and brought the case to the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ. Sa’d said “My brother ‘Utbah enjoined me that when I came to Makkah I should see the son of the slave girl of Zam’ah and take his possession for that is his son”. ‘Abd bin Zam’ah said “He is my brother, the son of my father’s slave girl having been born on my father’s bed”. The Apostle of Allaah ﷺ saw his clear resemblance to ‘Utbah. So he said “The child is attributed to the one on whose bed it is born and the fornicator is deprived of any right (lit. the fornicator will have the stone). Veil yourself from him, Saudah. Musaddad added in his version “he is your brother ‘Abd”.
