Sunan ad-Darimi

Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates in a marfu‘ form that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “The child belongs to the (owner of the) bed on which it is born, and for the adulterer is the stone.”

It is narrated from the wife of the Prophet, Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The child belongs to the (owner of the) bed."

Umm al-Mu’minin Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), the wife of the Prophet (peace be upon him), said: Utbah bin Abi Waqqas, at the time of his death, made a will to his brother, our master Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him), that the son of Zam’ah’s slave woman is mine, and he should take him into his custody. So, when the Prophet (peace be upon him) reached Makkah at the time of the conquest of Makkah, our master Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him) took the boy of Zam’ah’s slave woman, who among the people resembled Utbah bin Abi Waqqas the most. When this case was brought before the Prophet (peace be upon him), he gave the verdict: “This child, O ‘Abd bin Zam’ah, is for you, because his birth took place on his father’s bed.” (Because at that time the boy’s mother was in the ownership of ‘Abd bin Zam’ah), and the Prophet (peace be upon him) said to his wife, Umm al-Mu’minin Lady Sawdah bint Zam’ah (may Allah be pleased with her): “O Sawdah! Observe veil from this boy,” and he said this because of the resemblance the boy had to Utbah bin Abi Waqqas.
