Sahih al-Bukhari 4303

Translation

ʿUtba bin Abi Waqqas authorized his brother Saʿd to take the son of the slave-girl of Zamʿa into his custody. ʿUtba said (to him). "He is my son." When Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived in Mecca during the Conquest (of Mecca), Saʿd bin Abi Waqqas took the son of the slave-girl of Zamʿa and took him to the Prophet ﷺ ʿAbd bin Zamʿa too came along with him. Saʿd said. "This is the son of my brother and the latter has informed me that he is his son." ʿAbd bin Zamʿa said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! This is my brother who is the son of the slave-girl of Zamʿa and was born on his (i.e. Zam'as) bed.' Allah's Apostle looked at the son of the slave-girl of Zamʿa and noticed that he, of all the people had the greatest resemblance to ʿUtba bin Abi Waqqas. Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said (to ʿAbd), " He is yours; he is your brother, O ʿAbd bin Zamʿa, he was born on the bed (of your father)." (At the same time) Messenger of Allah ﷺ said (to his wife Sauda), "Veil yourself before him (i.e. the son of the slave-girl) O Sauda," because of the resemblance he noticed between him and ʿUtba bin Abi Waqqas. Allah's Apostle added, "The boy is for the bed (i.e. for the owner of the bed where he was born), and stone is for the adulterer." (Ibn Shihab said, "Abu Huraira used to say that (i.e. the last statement of the Prophet in the above Hadith 596, publicly.")
