حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ أَخْبَرَنَا مَهْدِيُّ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ مَوْلَى الحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّعَنْ رَبَاحٍ قَالَ
زَوَّجَنِي أَهْلِي أَمَةً لَهُمْ رُومِيَّةً فَوَقَعْتُ عَلَيْهَا، فَوَلَدَتْ لِي غُلَامًا أَسْوَدَ مِثْلِي، فَسَمَّيْتُهُ عَبْدَ اللهِ، ثُمَّ وَقَعْتُ عَلَيْهَا، فَوَلَدَتْ لِي غُلَامًا أَسْوَدَ مِثْلِي، فَسَمَّيْتُهُ عُبَيْدَ اللهِ، ثُمَّ طَبِنَ لَهَا غُلَامٌ لِأَهْلِي رُومِيٌّ يُقَالُ لَهُ: يُوحَنَّسُ، فَرَاطَنَهَا بِلِسَانِهِ قَالَ: فَوَلَدَتْ [لَهُ] غُلَامًا كَأَنَّهُ وَزَغَةٌ مِنَ الْوِزْغَانِ، فَقُلْتُ لَهَا: مَا هَذَا ؟ قَالَتْ: هُوَ لِيُوحَنَّسَ قَالَ: فَرُفِعْنَا إِلَى أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عُثْمَانَ قَالَ مَهْدِيٌّ: أَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ: سَأَلَهُمَا فَاعْتَرَفَا، فَقَالَ: أَتَرْضَيَانِ أَنْ أَقْضِيَ بَيْنَكُمَا بِقَضَاءِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ؟ قَالَ: فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَضَى أَنَّ الْوَلَدَ لِلْفِرَاشِ، وَلِلْعَاهِرِ الْحَجَرَ. قَالَ مَهْدِيٌّ: وَأَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ: جَلَدَهَا وَجَلَدَهُ، وَكَانَا مَمْلُوكَيْنِ.

- al-Ḥasan b. Saʿd a freed slave of al-Ḥasan b. ʿAliyyʿan Rabāḥ
✧ My family married me to a Roman slave girl of theirs, and I had intercourse with her. She bore me a black boy like me, and I named him Abdullah. Then I had intercourse with her again, and she bore me a black boy like me, and I named him Ubaydullah. Then a Roman slave of my family named Yuhannis developed a relationship with her and spoke to her in his language. He said: She bore [him] a boy like a gecko among geckos. I said to her: What is this? She said: He belongs to Yuhannis. He said: We were brought before the Commander of the Faithful, Uthman. Mahdi said: I think he said: He asked them and they confessed. He said: Are you both willing that I judge between you according to the judgment of the Messenger of Allah? He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ruled that the child belongs to the bed, and the adulterer gets the stone. Mahdi said: I think he said: He flogged her and flogged him, and they were both slaves.

- Dāraquṭnī
سئل عنه الدارقطني فقال رواه مهدي بن ميمون وجرير بن حازم عن محمد بن عبد الله بن أبي يعقوب عن الحسن بن سعد عن رباح عن عثمان وخالفهم حجاج بن أرطأة فرواه عن الحسن بن سعد عن أبيه وأسند الحديث عن علي بن أبي طالب عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم والقول الأول أصح
machine translationAl-Dāraquṭnī was asked about it and said: Mahdī b. Maymūn and Jarīr b. Ḥāzim narrated it from Muḥammad b. ʿAbdullāh b. Abī Yaʿqūb, from al-Ḥasan b. Saʿd, from Rabāḥ, from ʿUthmān. Ḥajjāj b. Arṭāh contradicted them, so he narrated it from al-Ḥasan b. Saʿd, from his father, and he traced the hadith back to ʿAlī b. Abī Ṭālib, from the Prophet ﷺ. The first account is more sound (aṣaḥḥ).
