Salma bint Nasr al-Muharibiyyah narrates: I asked Sayyidah Aishah al-Siddiqah (may Allah be pleased with her) about freeing a child born of zina, and she said: "Free him."
Imam al-Tabarani recorded this narration; I do not know the woman named Salma; the remaining narrators of this narration are thiqat (trustworthy), except that the narrator Ibn Ishaq is a mudallis (one who practises tadlis).
