بَابُ الرَّجُلِ يَدَّعِي وَلَدًا مِنْ زِنًاChapter on a man claiming a child from adultery
Hadith 3309
اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا سَعِيدٌ، نا جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ، عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْوَلَدُ لِلْفِرَاشِ وَبِفِي الْعَاهِرِ الْحَجَرُ»
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him): The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The child belongs to the owner of the bed, and the adulterer gets the stone."
Brief Explanation
Benefit: This supports the previous ahadith (2130–2131) and once again transmits the Prophetic principle "al-walad lil-firash" with a different chain of narration. This hadith is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn Mas'ud radi Allahu anhu, and in it as well, the same judgment of the Noble Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is mentioned, which forms the foundation of the Islamic Shari'ah's law of lineage. This hadith is also authentic in its chain of transmission and holds a fundamental juristic (fiqhi) status. From this, the following teaching of the Shari'ah becomes clear: lineage cannot be connected to a corrupt act such as fornication (zina); the foundation of lineage is marriage (nikah) and chastity (‘ismah); the Shari'ah maintains the protection of family lineage at all costs.
