Sunan Abi Dawud 4461 (Book 40, Hadith 111) #24752
The Reward for Voluntary Intercourse with a Slave Girl

SUMMARY: If a slave girl asks her mistress to have intercourse with her voluntarily, then the mistress will be given two similar slave girls from the property of the Prophet.

Narrated Salamah ibn al-Muhabbaq: A similar tradition (to the #4445) has also been transmitted by Salamah ibn al-Muhabbaq from the Prophet . This version has: If she asked her to have intercourse with her voluntarily, then she and a similar slave-girl would be given to her mistress from his property.
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الدِّرْهَمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الأَعْلَى، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْمُحَبَّقِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ نَحْوَهُ إِلاَّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ طَاوَعَتْهُ فَهِيَ حُرَّةٌ وَمِثْلُهَا مِنْ مَالِهِ لِسَيِّدَتِهَا
