رَجُلٍ دَفَعَ إِلَى رَجُلٍ مَالًا وَ قَالَ إِنَّمَا أَدْفَعُهُ إِلَيْكَ لِيَكُونَ ذُخْراً لِابْنَتَيَّ فُلَانَةَ وَ فُلَانَةَ ثُمَّ بَدَا لِلشَّيْخِ بَعْدَ مَا دَفَعَ الْمَالَ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ مِنْهُ خَمْسَةً وَ عِشْرِينَ وَ مِائَةَ دِينَارٍ فَاشْتَرَى بِهَا جَارِيَةً لِابْنِ ابْنِهِ ثُمَّ إِنَّ الشَّيْخَ هَلَكَ فَوَقَعَ بَيْنَ الْجَارِيَتَيْنِ وَ بَيْنَ الْغُلَامِ أَوْ إِحْدَاهُمَا فَقَالَتَا لَهُ وَيْحَكَ وَ اللَّهِ إِنَّكَ لَتَنْكِحُ جَارِيَتَكَ حَرَاماً إِنَّمَا اشْتَرَاهَا أَبُونَا لَكَ مِنْ مَالِنَا الَّذِي دَفَعَهُ إِلَى فُلَانٍ فَاشْتَرَى لَكَ مِنْهُ هَذِهِ الْجَارِيَةَ فَأَنْتَ تَنْكِحُهَا حَرَاماً لَا تَحِلُّ لَكَ فَأَمْسَكَ الْفَتَى عَنِ الْجَارِيَةِ فَمَا تَرَى فِي ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ أَ لَيْسَ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي دَفَعَ الْمَالَ أَبَا الْجَارِيَتَيْنِ وَ هُوَ جَدُّ الْغُلَامِ وَ هُوَ اشْتَرَى لَهُ الْجَارِيَةَ قُلْتُ بَلَى فَقَالَ فَقُلْ لَهُ فَلْيَأْتِ جَارِيَتَهُ إِذَا كَانَ الْجَدُّ هُوَ الَّذِي أَعْطَاهُ وَ هُوَ الَّذِي أَخَذَهُ .


Translation

Abu Ali Al Ashary, from Muhammad Bin Abdul Jabbar, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Saeed Bin Yasaar, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> regarding a man who handed over some wealth to a man and said, ‘But rather, I am handing over to you to save it for my two daughters, so and so, and so and so. Then the old man changed (his mind) after having handed over the wealth and took from it one hundred and twenty five Dinars, so he bought a slave girl for his grandson. Then the old man died. So there occurred a dispute between the two girls and the boy (the grandson who was given a salve girl), or with one of the two, so they said to him, ‘By Allah<sup>azwj</sup>! Your sleeping with your slave girl is unlawful because our father bought her for you from our wealth which he had handed over to so and so, so he bought this slave girl for you, from it. So if your sleep with her is unlawful and is not Permissible for you. So the youth refrained from the slave girl. So what is your<sup>asws</sup> view regarding that?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Is not the man who handed over the wealth, but the father of the two girls and he is the grandfather of the boy, and he is the one who bought the slave girls for him?’ I said, ‘Yes’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘So say to him to go to the slave girl when it was the grandfather who was the one who gave (the slave girl to) him, and he is the one who took it’.
