(جَوَازُ مُشَابَهَةِ الوَلَدِ لِأُمِّهِ أَوْ أَبِيهِ)
(The Permissibility of a Child Resembling Its Mother or Father)
Mishkat al-Masabih 434 — The Permissibility of a Child Resembling
وَزَادَ مُسْلِمٌ بِرِوَايَةِ أُمِّ سُلَيْمٍ: «أَنَّ مَاءَ الرَّجُلِ غَلِيظٌ أَبْيَضُ وَمَاءَ الْمَرْأَةِ رَقِيقٌ أَصْفَرُ فَم أَيِّهِمَا عَلَا أَوْ سَبَقَ يَكُونُ مِنْهُ الشَّبَهُ»
Muslim added in the version of Umm Sulaim, "The man’s liquid is coarse and white, the woman’s fine and yellow, so the resemblance comes from the one which prevails or comes first.”
