37.20 The earnings of prostitutes and female-slaves
٣٧۔٢٠ باب كَسْبِ الْبَغِيِّ وَالإِمَاءِ
[Machine] Ibrahim disliked the wages of professional mourners and singers. And the saying of Allah the Most High: "And do not compel your maidens to prostitution if they wish chastity, seeking [thereby] the temporary interests of worldly life. And whoever should compel them, then indeed, Allah, after their compulsion, is [still] Forgiving and Merciful." Mujahid said: "Your maidens" refers to your slaves.
وَكَرِهَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ أَجْرَ النَّائِحَةِ وَالْمُغَنِّيَةِ. وَقَوْلُ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى: {وَلاَ تُكْرِهُوا فَتَيَاتِكُمْ عَلَى الْبِغَاءِ إِنْ أَرَدْنَ تَحَصُّنًا لِتَبْتَغُوا عَرَضَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَمَنْ يُكْرِهْهُنَّ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ مِنْ بَعْدِ إِكْرَاهِهِنَّ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ}. وَقَالَ مُجَاهِدٌ: {فَتَيَاتِكُمْ} إِمَاؤُكُمْ.
