4874 - وَ رَوَى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "قَضَى أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فِي سُرِّيَّةٍ لِرَجُلٍ وَلَدَتْ لِسَيِّدِهَا ثُمَّ أَنْكَحَهَا عَبْدَهُ ثُمَّ تُوُفِّيَ سَيِّدُهَا فَأَعْتَقَهَا فَتَزَوَّجَهَا فَوَرِثَهُ وَلَدُهَا ثُمَّ تُوُفِّيَ وَلَدُهَا فَوَرِثَتْ زَوْجَهَا اَلْعَبْدَ فَجَاءَا يَخْتَصِمَانِ فَقَالَ هِيَ اِمْرَأَتِي لَسْتُ أُطَلِّقُهَا وَ قَالَتْ هُوَ عَبْدِي لَمْ يُجَامِعْنِي فَسُئِلَتْ "هَلْ جَامَعَكِ مُنْذُ كَانَ لَكِ عَبْداً" فَقَالَتْ لاَ فَقَالَ "لَوْ جَامَعَكِ مُنْذُ كَانَ لَكِ عَبْداً لَأَوْجَعْتُكِ اِذْهَبِي فَهُوَ عَبْدُكِ لَيْسَ لَهُ عَلَيْكِ سَبِيلٌ تَبِيعِينَ إِنْ شِئْتِ وَ تُرِقِّينَ إِنْ شِئْتِ وَ تُعْتِقِينَ إِنْ شِئْتِ" ".
Hadith.4874 - Muḥammad ibn Qays narrated from Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir 
who said:
"The Commander of the Faithful ruled concerning a concubine of a man who bore a child for her master. The master then married her to his slave.
Later, the master passed away and freed her. She then married the slave, and when he died, her child inherited from him. Then the child passed away, and she inherited her husband, the slave. They both came to dispute, with the man saying, 'She is my wife, and I will not divorce her,' while the woman said: 'He is my slave, and he has not been intimate with me.'
She was asked: 'Did he have intercourse with you since he became your slave?'
She replied: 'No.'
Imam said: 'Had he been intimate with you after becoming your slave, I would have punished you. Go, for he is your slave; he has no right over you. You may sell him if you wish, enslave him if you wish, or free him if you wish.'"
