Hadith.5677 - Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Abdullah ibn Sinan, from Abu Abdullah (as), who said
"A man from the Ansar came to my father (as) and said: 'I have been afflicted with a great matter. I had a maid whom I used to have relations with. One day, after being intimate with her, I went out for some of my needs after performing ghusl. I later realized I had forgotten some of my provisions, so I returned home to retrieve them and found my servant lying with her. I then counted nine months from that day, and she gave birth to a girl.' My father (as) said: 'It is not appropriate for you to approach her nor to sell her. However, spend on her from your wealth as long as you are alive, and when you die, bequeath that she continues to be provided for from your wealth until Allah (swt) grants you and her a way out.'"
5677 - رَوَى اَلْحَسَنُ بْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ
"إِنَّ رَجُلاً مِنَ اَلْأَنْصَارِ أَتَى أَبِي عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فَقَالَ إِنِّي اُبْتُلِيتُ بِأَمْرٍ عَظِيمٍ إِنَّ لِي جَارِيَةً كُنْتُ أَطَأُهَا فَوَطِئْتُهَا يَوْماً وَ خَرَجْتُ فِي حَاجَةٍ لِي بَعْدَ مَا اِغْتَسَلْتُ مِنْهَا وَ نَسِيتُ نَفَقَةً لِي فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى اَلْمَنْزِلِ لآِخُذَهَا فَوَجَدْتُ غُلاَمِي عَلَى بَطْنِهَا فَعَدَدْتُ لَهَا مِنْ يَوْمِي ذَلِكَ تِسْعَةَ أَشْهُرٍ فَوَلَدَتْ جَارِيَةً فَقَالَ "لاَ يَنْبَغِي لَكَ أَنْ تَقْرَبَهَا وَ لاَ أَنْ تَبِيعَهَا وَ لَكِنْ أَنْفِقْ عَلَيْهَا مِنْ مَالِكَ مَا دُمْتَ حَيّاً ثُمَّ أَوْصِ عِنْدَ مَوْتِكَ أَنْ يُنْفَقَ عَلَيْهَا مِنْ مَالِكَ حَتَّى يَجْعَلَ اَللَّهُ لَكَ وَ لَهَا مَخْرَجاً" ".
