[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.”
سَمِعْتُ امْرَأَةً تَسْأَلُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ جَارِيَةٍ لَهَا، خَرَجَ بِهَا زَوْجُهَا إِلَى سَفَرٍ فَأَصَابَهَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «إِنْ كَانَ اسْتَكْرَهَهَا فَهِيَ حُرَّةٌ، وَعَلَيْهِ مِثْلُهَا، وَإِنْ كَانَتْ طَاوَعَتْهُ فَهِيَ جَارِيَتُهُ، وَعَلَيْهِ مِثْلُهَا».
