Narrated Ibn 'Umar (RA): 'Umar (RA) forbade the sale of the slave-women who have given birth to children (of their owners). He said, "She is not to be sold, bestowed as a gift or inherited. He (the owner) enjoys her as long as he lives and when he dies, she becomes free." [Reported by Malik an al-Baihaqi. He said: Some of the narrators have attributed it to the Prophet (ﷺ) mistakenly].
