قَالَ مَالِكٌ : أَحْسَنُ مَا سَمِعْتُ فِي وَصِيَّةِ الْحَامِلِ وَفِي قَضَايَاهَا فِي مَالِهَا وَمَا يَجُوزُ لَهَا. أَنَّ الْحَامِلَ كَالْمَرِيضِ. فَإِذَا كَانَ الْمَرَضُ الْخَفِيفُ، غَيْرُ الْمَخُوفِ عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ، فَإِنَّ صَاحِبَهُ يَصْنَعُ فِي مَالِهِ مَا يَشَاءُ. وَإِذَا كَانَ الْمَرَضُ الْمَخُوفُ عَلَيْهِ، لَمْ يَجُزْ لِصَاحِبِهِ شَيْءٌ إِلَّا فِي ثُلُثِهِ. ¤
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said that a pregnant woman is like a sick person; if the illness is mild in which there is no fear of death, then the owner of the wealth has the choice to dispose of it as he wishes. However, in an illness in which there is fear of death, it is not permissible to dispose of more than one-third.
