ʿUtba (bin Abi Waqqas) said to his brother Saʿd, "The son of the slave girl of Zamʿa is my son, so be his custodian." So when it was the year of the Conquest of Mecca, Saʿd took that child and said, "He is my nephew, and my brother told me to be his custodian." On that, 'Abu bin Zamʿa got up and said, 'but the child is my brother, and the son of my father's slave girl as he was born on his bed." So they both went to the Prophet. Saʿd said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! (This is) the son of my brother and he told me to be his custodian." Then 'Abu bin Zamʿa said, "(But he is) my brother and the son of the slave girl of my father, born on his bed." The Prophet ﷺ said, "This child is for you. O 'Abu bin Zamʿa, as the child is for the owner of the bed, and the adulterer receives the stones." He then ordered (his wife) Sauda bint Zamʿa to cover herself before that boy as he noticed the boy's resemblance to ʿUtba. Since then the boy had never seen Sauda till he died.
