The slave or slave woman of a dhimmi who embraces Islam

Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: If the slave of a polytheist accepts Islam, that slave will be taken from him and sold to the Muslims, and his price will be given to his polytheist master.

Umar bin Abd al-Aziz used to order that the slaves of the dhimmis (non-Muslim subjects) be sold if they accepted Islam.

Al-Hasan said: If the umm walad (a slave woman who has borne her master's child) of a Christian accepts Islam, she will strive to pay her own value, and if a slave woman accepts Islam, she will be sold.

Ata said: If the slave of a dhimmi accepts Islam, separation will be made between him and his master.

Al-Hasan said: Whoever among the slaves of the dhimmis accepts Islam becomes free. If dhimmis buy a captive of the Muslims and he then accepts Islam, that slave will be sold to the Muslims.

Al-Hasan said: If the slave of a dhimmi accepts Islam, he will be taken to the ruler and sold to the Muslims, and his price will be given to his master.

And al-Hasan said: A Muslim should not serve a disbeliever.

Al-Zuhri said: The Sunnah has become firmly established that a disbeliever cannot enslave a Muslim.
