سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ رَجُلَيْنِ تَكُونُ بَيْنَهُمَا الْأَمَةُ فَيُعْتِقُ أَحَدُهُمَا نَصِيبَهُ فَتَقُولُ الْأَمَةُ لِلَّذِي لَمْ يُعْتِقْ نِصْفَهُ لَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ تُقَوِّمَنِي ذَرْنِي كَمَا أَنَا أَخْدُمْكَ وَ إِنَّهُ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَسْتَنْكِحَ النِّصْفَ الْآخَرَ قَالَ لَا يَنْبَغِي لَهُ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ لِأَنَّهُ لَا يَكُونُ لِلْمَرْأَةِ فَرْجَانِ وَ لَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَسْتَخْدِمَهَا وَ لَكِنْ يُقَوِّمُهَا فَيَسْتَسْعِيهَا .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Muhammad Bin Ismail, from Muhammad Bin Al Fuzaul, from Abu Al Sabbah Al Kinany, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I asked him<sup>asws</sup> about two men who happened to have the slave girl between them. So one of them emancipated his share of her, and the slave girl said to the one who did not emancipate his share, ‘I do not want that you evaluate me. Leave me just as I am your servant’, and he wanted to marry the other half’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Is it not befitting for him that he does so, because there do not happen to be two private parts for the woman, and it is not befitting that he makes her serve, but he should evaluate her, so he can make her work for it (to be paid off)’.
