حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ، عَنْ كَثِيرِ بْنِ شِنْظِيرٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ: "فِي الْحُرَّةِ تَحْتَ الْعَبْدِ، قَالَ: أَمَّا مَا وَلَدَتْ مِنْهُ وَهُوَ عَبْدٌ، فَوَلَاؤُهُمْ لِأَهْلِ نِعْمَتِهَا، وَمَا وَلَدَتْ مِنْهُ وَهُوَ حُرٌّ، فَوَلَاؤُهُمْ لِأَهْلِ نِعْمَتِهِ".
It is narrated from Ata regarding a free woman who is married to a slave: The children born to her during the period of slavery, their wala’ (allegiance) will be for the benefactors of the woman, and the children born after the slave’s emancipation, their wala’ will be for the benefactors (those who granted freedom) of the slave.
