Having female captives and manumitting one's own slave-girl
Narrated Abu Burda's father:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, any man who has a slave girl whom he educates properly, teaches good manners,
manumits and marries her, will get a double reward And if any man of the people of the Scriptures
believes in his own prophet and then believes in me too, he will (also) get a double reward And any
slave who fulfills his duty to his master and to his Lord, will (also) get a double reward."

Having female captives and manumitting one's own slave-girl
Narrated Abu Huraira:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Abraham did not tell lies except three. (One of them was) when Abraham passed by
a tyrant and (his wife) Sara was accompanying him (Abu Huraira then mentioned the whole narration
and said:) (The tyrant) gave her Hajar. Sara said, "Allah saved me from the hands of the Kafir (i.e.
infidel) and gave me Hajar to serve me." (Abu Huraira added:) That (Hajar) is your mother, O Banu
Ma'-As-Sama' (i.e., the Arabs).

Having female captives and manumitting one's own slave-girl
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet (ﷺ) stayed for three days between Khaibar and Medina, and there he consummated his
marriage to Safiyya bint Huyai. I invited the Muslims to the wedding banquet in which neither meat
nor bread was offered. He ordered for leather dining-sheets to be spread, and dates, dried yoghurt and
butter were laid on it, and that was the Prophet's wedding banquet. The Muslims wondered, "Is she
(Saffiyya) considered as his wife or his slave girl?" Then they said, "If he orders her to veil herself,
she will be one of the mothers of the Believers; but if he does not order her to veil herself, she will be
a slave girl. So when the Prophet (ﷺ) proceeded from there, he spared her a space behind him (on his shecamel)
and put a screening veil between her and the people.

The manumission of a slave-girl as her Mahr
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) manumitted Safiyya and regarded her manumission as her Mahr.
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ وَشُعَيْبِ بْنِ الْحَبْحَابِ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَعْتَقَ صَفِيَّةَ وَجَعَلَ عِتْقَهَا صَدَاقَهَا
"If they be poor, Allah will enrich them out of His Bounty."
Narrated Sahl bin Sa`d As-Sa`idi:
A woman came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and said, "O Allah's Messenger! I have come to give you myself in
marriage (without Mahr)." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) looked at her. He looked at her carefully and fixed his
glance on her and then lowered his head. When the lady saw that he did not say anything, she sat
down. A man from his companions got up and said, "O Allah's Messenger! If you are not in need of her,
then marry her to me." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Have you got anything to offer?" The man said, "No, by
Allah, O Allah's Messenger!" The Prophet (ﷺ) said (to him), "Go to your family and see if you have
something." The man went and returned, saying, "No, by Allah, I have not found anything." Allah's
Apostle said, "(Go again) and look for something, even if it is an iron ring." He went again and
returned, saying, "No, by Allah, O Allah's Messenger! I could not find even an iron ring, but this is my
Izar (waist sheet)." He had no rida. He added, "I give half of it to her." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "What
will she do with your Izar? If you wear it, she will be naked, and if she wears it, you will be naked."
So that man sat down for a long while and then got up (to depart). When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saw him
going, he ordered that he be called back. When he came, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "How much of the Qur'an
do you know?" He said, "I know such Sura and such Sura," counting them. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Do you
know them by heart?" He replied, "Yes." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Go, I marry her to you for that much of
the Qur'an which you have."

Husband and wife should have the same religion
Narrated `Aisha:
Abu Hudhaifa bin `Utba bin Rabi`a bin `Abdi Shams who had witnessed the battle of Badr along with
the Prophet (ﷺ) adopted Salim as his son, to whom he married his niece, Hind bint Al-Walid bin `Utba bin
Rabi`a; and Salim was the freed slave of an Ansar woman, just as the Prophet (ﷺ) had adopted Zaid as his
son. It was the custom in the Pre-lslamic Period that if somebody adopted a boy, the people would call
him the son of the adoptive father and he would be the latter's heir. But when Allah revealed the
Divine Verses: 'Call them by (the names of) their fathers . . . your freed-slaves,' (33.5) the adopted
persons were called by their fathers' names. The one whose father was not known, would be regarded
as a Maula and your brother in religion. Later on Sahla bint Suhail bin `Amr Al-Quraishi Al-`Amiri--
and she was the wife of Abu- Hudhaifa bin `Utba--came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "O Allah's Messenger!
We used to consider Salim as our (adopted) son, and now Allah has revealed what you know
(regarding adopted sons)." The sub-narrator then mentioned the rest of the narration.

Narrated Sahl:
A man passed by Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and Allah s Apostle asked (his companions) "What do you say about
this (man)?" They replied "If he asks for a lady's hand, he ought to be given her in marriage; and if he
intercedes (for someone) his intercessor should be accepted; and if he speaks, he should be listened
to." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) kept silent, and then a man from among the poor Muslims passed by, an Allah's
Apostle asked (them) "What do you say about this man?" They replied, "If he asks for a lady's hand in
marriage he does not deserve to be married, and he intercedes (for someone), his intercession should
not be accepted; And if he speaks, he should not be listened to.' Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "This poor man
is better than so many of the first as filling the earth.'

The marriage of a poor man with a well-to-do lady
Narrated 'Urwa:
that he asked `Aisha regarding the Verse: 'If you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the
orphans (4.3) She said, "O my nephew! This Verse refers to the orphan girl who is under the
guardianship of her guardian who likes her beauty and wealth and wishes to (marry her and) curtails
her Mahr. Such guardians have been forbidden to marry them unless they do justice by giving them
their full Mahr, and they have been ordered to marry other than them. The people asked for the verdict
of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) after that, so Allah revealed: 'They ask your instruction concerning the women . . .
whom you desire to marry.' (4.127) So Allah revealed to them that if the orphan girl had beauty and
wealth, they desired to marry her and for her family status. They can only marry them if they give
them their full Mahr. And if they had no desire to marry them because of their lack of wealth and
beauty, they would leave them and marry other women. So, as they used to leave them, when they had
no interest, in them, they were forbidden to marry them when they had such interest, unless they
treated them justly and gave them their full Mahr Apostle said, 'If at all there is evil omen, it is in the
horse, the woman and the house." a lady is to be warded off. And the Statement of Allah: 'Truly,
among your wives and your children, there are enemies for you (i.e may stop you from the obedience
of Allah)' (64.14)

Barira, and you do not eat the (things given in) charity." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "It is an object of charity
for Barira, and it is a present for us."
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ كَانَ فِي بَرِيرَةَ ثَلاَثُ سُنَنٍ عَتَقَتْ فَخُيِّرَتْ وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم الْوَلاَءُ لِمَنْ أَعْتَقَ وَدَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَبُرْمَةٌ عَلَى النَّارِ فَقُرِّبَ إِلَيْهِ خُبْزٌ وَأُدْمٌ مِنْ أُدْمِ الْبَيْتِ فَقَالَ لَمْ أَرَ الْبُرْمَةَ فَقِيلَ لَحْمٌ تُصُدِّقَ عَلَى بَرِيرَةَ وَأَنْتَ لاَ تَأْكُلُ الصَّدَقَةَ قَالَ هُوَ عَلَيْهَا صَدَقَةٌ وَلَنَا هَدِيَّةٌ
Not to marry more than four (at a time)
Narrated Aisha":
(regarding) the Verse: 'And if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphans...'
(4.3) It is about the orphan girl who is in the custody of a man who is her guardian, and he intends to
marry her because of her wealth, but he treats her badly and does not manage her property fairly and
honestly. Such a man should marry women of his liking other than her, two or three or four.
'Prohibited to you (for marriage) are: ...your foster-mothers (who suckled you).' (4.23) Marriage is
prohibited between persons having a foster suckling relationship corresponding to a blood relationship
which renders marriage unlawful.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدَةُ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ [ 4 3 3]وَإِنْ خِفْتُمْ أَنْ لاَ تُقْسِطُوا فِي الْيَتَامَى قَالَتِ الْيَتِيمَةُ تَكُونُ عِنْدَ الرَّجُلِ وَهْوَ وَلِيُّهَا فَيَتَزَوَّجُهَا عَلَى مَالِهَا وَيُسِيءُ صُحْبَتَهَا وَلاَ يَعْدِلُ فِي مَالِهَا فَلْيَتَزَوَّجْ مَا طَابَ لَهُ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ سِوَاهَا مَثْنَى وَثُلاَثَ وَرُبَاعَ
"..your foster-mothers who gave you suck."
Narrated `Aisha:
(the wife of the Prophet) that while Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was with her, she heard a voice of a man asking
permission to enter the house of Hafsa. `Aisha added: I said, "O Allah's Messenger! This man is asking
permission to enter your house." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "I think he is so-and-so," naming the foster-uncle
of Hafsa. `Aisha said, "If so-and-so," naming her foster uncle, "were living, could he enter upon me?"
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Yes, for foster suckling relations make all those things unlawful which are
unlawful through corresponding birth (blood) relations."
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ عَنْ عَمْرَةَ بِنْتِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَخْبَرَتْهَا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ عِنْدَهَا وَأَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ صَوْتَ رَجُلٍ يَسْتَأْذِنُ فِي بَيْتِ حَفْصَةَ قَالَتْ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَذَا رَجُلٌ يَسْتَأْذِنُ فِي بَيْتِكَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أُرَاهُ فُلاَنًا لِعَمِّ حَفْصَةَ مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ لَوْ كَانَ فُلاَنٌ حَيًّا لِعَمِّهَا مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ دَخَلَ عَلَىَّ فَقَالَ نَعَمِ الرَّضَاعَةُ تُحَرِّمُ مَا تُحَرِّمُ الْوِلاَدَةُ
"..your foster-mothers who gave you suck."
Narrated Ibn `Abbas:
It was said to the Prophet, "Won't you marry the daughter of Hamza?" He said, "She is my foster niece
(brother's daughter). "
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ قِيلَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَلاَ تَزَوَّجُ ابْنَةَ حَمْزَةَ قَالَ إِنَّهَا ابْنَةُ أَخِي مِنَ الرَّضَاعَةِ وَقَالَ بِشْرُ بْنُ عُمَرَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ سَمِعْتُ قَتَادَةَ سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ مِثْلَهُ
"..your foster-mothers who gave you suck."
Narrated Um Habiba:
(daughter of Abu Sufyan) I said, "O Allah's Messenger! Marry my sister. the daughter of Abu Sufyan."
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Do you like that?" I replied, "Yes, for even now I am not your only wife and I like
that my sister should share the good with me." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "But that is not lawful for me." I
said, We have heard that you want to marry the daughter of Abu Salama." He said, "(You mean) the
daughter of Um Salama?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Even if she were not my step-daughter, she would
be unlawful for me to marry as she is my foster niece. I and Abu Salama were suckled by Thuwaiba.
So you should not present to me your daughters or your sisters (in marriage)."
Narrated 'Urwa:
Thuwaiba was the freed slave girl of Abu Lahb whom he had manumitted, and then she suckled the
Prophet. When Abu Lahb died, one of his relatives saw him in a dream in a very bad state and asked
him, "What have you encountered?" Abu Lahb said, "I have not found any rest since I left you, except
that I have been given water to drink in this (the space between his thumb and other fingers) and that
is because of my manumitting Thuwaiba."

"No suckling is to be carried on after the baby is two years old."
Narrated `Aisha:
that the Prophet (ﷺ) entered upon her while a man was sitting with her. Signs of answer seemed to appear
on his face as if he disliked that. She said, "Here is my (foster) brother." He said, "Be sure as to who is
your foster brother, for foster suckling relationship is established only when milk is the only food of
the child."
