سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ رَجُلٍ حَسِبَ أَهْلُهُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ مَاتَ أَوْ قُتِلَ فَنَكَحَتِ امْرَأَتُهُ وَ تَزَوَّجَتْ سُرِّيَّتُهُ فَوَلَدَتْ كُلُّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْهُمَا مِنْ زَوْجِهَا فَجَاءَ زَوْجُهَا الْأَوَّلُ وَ مَوْلَى السُّرِّيَّةِ قَالَ فَقَالَ يَأْخُذُ امْرَأَتَهُ فَهُوَ أَحَقُّ بِهَا وَ يَأْخُذُ سُرِّيَّتَهُ وَ وَلَدَهَا أَوْ يَأْخُذُ عِوَضاً مِنْ ثَمَنِهِ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, and a number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, altogether from Ibn Abu Najran, from Aasim Bin Humeyd, from Muhammad Bin Qays who said, ‘I asked Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> about a man whose wife reckoned that he had died, or been killed. So his wife as well as his concubine remarried. So each one of then gave birth from her husband. So the first husband and master of the concubine came over’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He would take his wife, for he is more rightful with her, and he would take the concubine, and her child, or take its price in place of it’.
