Muwatta Imam Malik (Riwayat Yahya)
كتاب البيوعBook: On the Rulings of Buying and Selling
بَابُ مَا يُفْعَلُ فِي الْوَلِيدَةِ إِذَا بِيعَتْ وَالشَّرْطُ فِيهَاWhat is done with a slave woman when sold and the conditions therein
Hadith 1308
وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ : " لَا يَطَأُ الرَّجُلُ وَلِيدَةً إِلَّا وَلِيدَةً إِنْ شَاءَ بَاعَهَا، وَإِنْ شَاءَ وَهَبَهَا، وَإِنْ شَاءَ أَمْسَكَهَا، وَإِنْ شَاءَ صَنَعَ بِهَا مَا شَاءَ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he used to say: It is permissible for a man to have intercourse with a slave woman over whom he has complete authority; if he wishes, he may sell her, if he wishes, he may gift her, if he wishes, he may keep her, he may do whatever he wants.
Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) said: If a person buys a slave woman on the condition that he will not sell her, or will not gift her, or any similar condition is stipulated, then it is not permissible to have intercourse with that slave woman, because when he does not have the authority to sell or gift her, then his ownership is not complete, and the requirements of ownership remain in the control of another, and such a sale is disliked.
