You could find no other part (to slap) but the prominent part of her face. See I was one of the seven sons of Muqarrin, and we had but only one slave-girl. The youngest of us slapped her, and Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded us to set her free. 2097  

مسلم:١٦٥٨bحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ وَاللَّفْظُ لأَبِي بَكْرٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ عَنْ هِلاَلِ بْنِ يَسَافٍ قَالَ عَجِلَ شَيْخٌ فَلَطَمَ خَادِمًا لَهُ فَقَالَ

We were staying in the house of Suwaid b. Muqarrin. There was among us an old man who was hot-tempered. He had a slave-girl with him. He gave a slap on her face. I never saw Suwaid more angry than on that day. He said: there is no alternative for you except to free her. I was the seventh child in order of Muqarrin and we had only a female servant. The youngest of us gave a slap on her face. The prophet (May peace be upon him) commanded us to set her free.

[Machine] Did you find anything except a free face? I have seen myself, and we are the seventh of seven sons of Muqarrin. We have only one servant whom one of us has appointed, and he slapped him. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded us that when we return, we should set him free, so we set him free.
