(Book 30, Hadith 5) #36330
Marriage between Slave Boy and Girl Not Allowed

SUMMARY: A man asked Ibn Abbas if a slave boy and girl, who were nursed by two different wives of the same man, could marry each other. Ibn Abbas replied that it was not allowed as the husband is the same.

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Amr ibn ash- Sharid that Abdullah ibn Abbas was asked whether, if a man had two wives, and one of them nursed a slave-boy, and the other had nursed a slave-girl, could the slave-boy marry the slave-girl. He said, "No. The husband is the same".
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الشَّرِيدِ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، سُئِلَ عَنْ رَجُلٍ، كَانَتْ لَهُ امْرَأَتَانِ فَأَرْضَعَتْ إِحْدَاهُمَا غُلاَمًا وَأَرْضَعَتِ الأُخْرَى جَارِيَةً فَقِيلَ لَهُ هَلْ يَتَزَوَّجُ الْغُلاَمُ الْجَارِيَةَ فَقَالَ لاَ اللِّقَاحُ وَاحِدٌ

QUICK LESSONS:
Respect family ties , Treat servants with kindness

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith explains that marriage between a slave boy and girl is not allowed even if they were nursed by two different wives of the same man. This is because according to Islamic law, all slaves are considered to be under one husband or master. Therefore it would be considered incestuous for them to marry each other as they are related through their master or husband. The hadith also teaches us about the importance of respecting family ties in Islam and how we should not break them even when it comes to slaves. It also shows us that Islam does not allow any kind of exploitation or abuse towards slaves but instead encourages us to treat them with respect and kindness just like any other human being.
