وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ الْحِرَفِيُّ بِبَغْدَادَ أنبأ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ الْكُوفِيُّ، ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَفَّانَ، ثنا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ، عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ ⦗٣٢١⦘ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي ثُمَامَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَنَسٍ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: " كُنَّ إِمَاءُ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ يَخْدِمْنَنَا كَاشِفَاتٍ عَنْ شُعُورِهِنَّ تَضْرِبُ ثُدِيُّهُنَّ " قَالَ الشَّيْخُ: " وَالْآثَارُ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ فِي ذَلِكَ صَحِيحَةٌ، وَإِنَّهَا تَدُلُّ عَلَى أَنَّ رَأْسَهَا وَرَقَبَتَهَا وَمَا يَظْهَرُ مِنْهَا فِي حَالِ الْمِحْنَةِ لَيْسَ بِعَوْرَةٍ، فَأَمَّا حَدِيثُ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ فَقَدِ اخْتُلِفَ فِي مَتْنِهِ فَلَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يُعْتَمَدَ عَلَيْهِ فِي عَوْرَةِ الْأَمَةِ وَإِنْ كَانَ يَصْلُحُ الِاسْتِدْلَالُ بِهِ وَبِسَائِرِ مَا يَأْتِي عَلَيْهِ مَعَهُ فِي عَوْرَةِ الرَّجُلِ، وَبِاللهِ التَّوْفِيقُ وَقَدِ احْتَجَّ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِنَا فِي ذَلِكَ بِحَدِيثٍ رَوَاهُ بِإِسْنَادِهِ.
(a) It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the slave-girls of Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) used to serve us with their hair uncovered and their breasts moving.
(b) Imam al-Bayhaqi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The reports transmitted from Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) on this issue are sahih (authentic), and they indicate that a slave-girl's head, neck and whatever of her shows while she is at work are not awrah.
(c) As for the narration of Amr bin Shu'ayb, its text is disputed, so it is not proper to rely on it regarding the awrah of a slave-girl, although it is valid to use it, together with the other reports that come with it, as evidence regarding the awrah of a man. 'Wa billahi al-tawfiq' (And success is only through Allah).
