حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا
يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، حَدَّثَنَا
يَحْيَى، عَنْ
سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّ
عُمَرَ، قَالَ:
"أَيُّمَا حُرٍّ تَزَوَّجَ أَمَةً، فَقَدْ أَرَقَّ نِصْفَهُ، وَأَيُّمَا عَبْدٍ تَزَوَّجَ حُرَّةً، فَقَدْ أَعْتَقَ نِصْفَهُ، قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّد: يَعْنِي الْوَلَدَ.
It is narrated from Saeed (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Whoever a free man marries a slave woman, he has mortgaged half of himself, and whoever a slave marries a free woman, he has freed half of himself. Imam Darimi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: What is meant by this is the offspring.
