أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عُمَرَ،
أَنَّ فِي كِتَابٍ لِعُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ أَنَّ عُمَرَ، قَضَى فِي وَلِيدَةِ رَجُلٍ أَتَتْهُ، فَذَكَرَتْ لَهُ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُصِيبُهَا وَهِيَ خَادِمٌ لَهُ، تَخْتَلِفُ لِحَاجَتِهِ وَأَنَّهَا حَمَلَتْ فَشَكَّ فِي حَمْلِهَا فَاعْتَرَفَ بِإِصَابَتِهَا، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: " أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، مَا بَالُ رِجَالٍ يُصِيبُونَ وَلَائِدَهُمْ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ أَحَدُهُمْ: إِذَا حَمَلَتْ لَيْسَ مِنِّي، فَأَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ اعْتَرَفَ بِإِصَابَةِ وَلِيدَتِهِ فَحَمَلَتْ فَإِنَّ وَلَدَهَا لَهُ، أَحْصَنَهَا أَوْ لَمْ يُحْصِنْهَا، وَإِنَّهَا إِنْ وَلَدَتْ حَبِيسٌ عَلَيْهِ لَا تُبَاعُ وَلَا تُورَّثُ وَلَا تُوهَبُ، وَإِنَّهُ يَسْتَمْتِعُ بِهَا مَا كَانَ حَيًّا، فَإِنْ مَاتَ فَهِيَ حُرَّةٌ لَا تُحْسَبُ فِي حِصَّةِ وَلَدِهَا وَلَا يُدْرِكُهَا دَيْنٌ، نص إضافيفَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَضَى أَنَّهُ لَا يَحِلُّ لِوَلَدٍ أَنَّهُ لَا يَمْلِكُ وَالِدَهُ وَلَا يُتْرَكُ فِي مِلْكِهِ

It is recorded in a letter of 'Umar ibn 'Abd al-'Aziz that 'Umar judged concerning a man's slave-girl who came to him. She told him that he used to have intercourse with her while she was a servant of his, going about his needs, and that she became pregnant, and he doubted her pregnancy, but he admitted having intercourse with her. 'Umar said: "O people, what is the matter with men who have intercourse with their slave-girls, then one of them says: 'When she becomes pregnant, it is not mine'? Whichever man admits intercourse with his slave-girl and she becomes pregnant, her child is his, whether he kept her chaste or did not keep her chaste. If she gives birth, she is a habis (inalienable) for him: she is not sold, inherited, or given away, and he may enjoy her as long as he is alive. If he dies, she is free, she is not counted in the share of her child, and no debt overtakes her. [Additional text] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ruled that it is not lawful for a child to own his father, nor to be left in his ownership."
