Hadith.5679 - Al-Qasim ibn Muhammad narrated from Sulaym, the servant of Tirbal, from Hariz, from Abu Abdullah (as), regarding a man who used to have intimate relations with his maid and would also send her out to fulfill his needs. She became pregnant, and
he heard rumors of her misconduct. Abu Abdullah (as) said: "Tell him that when she gives birth, he should keep the child and not sell it, and he should allocate a share for the child from his house." It was then said to Imam (as): "What about a man who had intimate relations with his maid but did not send her out for errands, yet he suspected her and she became pregnant?" Imam (as) replied: "When she gives birth, he should keep the child and not sell it, and he should allocate a share for the child from his house and wealth. This case is not like the previous one."
5679 - وَ رَوَى اَلْقَاسِمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمٍ مَوْلَى طِرْبَالٍ عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ
فِي رَجُلٍ كَانَ يَطَأُ جَارِيَةً لَهُ وَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَبْعَثُهَا فِي حَوَائِجِهِ وَ أَنَّهَا حَبِلَتْ وَ أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ عَنْهَا فَسَادٌ فَقَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ "قُلْ لَهُ إِذَا وَلَدَتْ فَأَمْسِكِ اَلْوَلَدَ وَ لاَ تَبِعْهُ وَ اِجْعَلْ لَهُ نَصِيباً مِنْ دَارِكَ" قَالَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ كَانَ يَطَأُ جَارِيَةً لَهُ وَ لَمْ يَكُنْ يَبْعَثُهَا فِي حَوَائِجِهِ وَ أَنَّهُ اِتَّهَمَهَا وَ حَبِلَتْ فَقَالَ "إِذَا هِيَ وَلَدَتْ أَمْسَكَ اَلْوَلَدَ وَ لاَ يَبِيعُهُ وَ يَجْعَلُ لَهُ نَصِيباً مِنْ دَارِهِ وَ مَالِهِ لَيْسَ هَذِهِ مِثْلَ تِلْكَ".
