Information for "MuwataMalik-017-001-35037"

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah Ibn Umar would say; A man should not have intercourse with a slave girl except one whom; if he wished; he could sell; if he wished; he could give away; if he wished; he could keep; if he wished; he could do with her what he wanted. Malik said that a man who bought a slave- girl on condition that he did not sell her; give her away; or do something of that nature; was not to have intercourse with her. That was because he was not permitted to sell her or to give her away; so if he did not own that from her; he did not have complete ownership of her because an exception had been made concerning her by the hand of someone else. If that sort of condition entered into it; it was a messy situation; and the sale was not recommended.
