Majmu' al-Fatawa - Ibn Taimiya - (32/77)

Shaykh al-Islām—may Allah have mercy on him—was asked:

A man purchased a slave woman and had intercourse with her, then transferred ownership of her to his son. Is his son permitted to have intercourse with her?

He replied:

Praise be to Allah. In these circumstances, the son is not permitted to have intercourse with her after his father has done so, by the consensus of the Muslims. Anyone who regards this as lawful must be called upon to repent; if he does not repent, he is to be executed. The Sunan collections contain the following report:

Al-Barā’ ibn ‘Āzib said: “I saw my maternal uncle Abū Burda carrying his banner and asked him, ‘Where are you going?’ He replied, ‘The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, has sent me to a man who married his father’s wife, ordering me to behead him and take one-fifth of his property.’”

The imams do not dispute that there is no difference between the father having intercourse with her within marriage and his doing so by right of ownership.

He—may Allah have mercy on him—was also asked:

A man married a woman a year ago but did not consummate the marriage, and divorced her before having intercourse with her. May he consummate a marriage with her mother after divorcing the daughter?

He replied:

He is not permitted to marry his wife’s mother, even if he did not consummate the marriage with her daughter. And Allah knows best.

وَسُئِلَ شَيْخُ الْإِسْلَامِ - رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ -: عَنْ رَجُلٍ اشْتَرَى جَارِيَةً وَوَطِئَهَا ثُمَّ مَلَّكَهَا لِوَلَدِهِ. فَهَلْ يَجُوزُ لِوَلَدِهِ وَطْؤُهَا؟ فَأَجَابَ: الْحَمْدُ اللَّه، لَا يَجُوزُ لِلِابْنِ أَنْ يَطَأَهَا بَعْدَ وَطْءِ أَبِيهِ وَالْحَالُ هَذِهِ بِاتِّفَاقِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ. وَمَنْ اسْتَحَلَّ ذَلِكَ فَإِنَّهُ يُسْتَتَابُ فَإِنْ تَابَ وَإِلَّا قُتِلَ وَفِي السُّنَنِ {عَنْ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ: رَأَيْت خَالِي أَبَا بُرْدَةَ وَمَعَهُ رَايَتُهُ فَقُلْت: إلَى أَيْنَ؟ فَقَالَ: بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إلَى رَجُلٍ تَزَوَّجَ امْرَأَةَ أَبِيهِ فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَضْرِبَ عُنُقَهُ وَأُخَمِّسَ مَالَهُ} وَلَا نِزَاعَ بَيْنَ الْأَئِمَّةِ أَنَّهُ لَا فَرْقَ بَيْنَ وَطْئِهَا بِالنِّكَاحِ وَبَيْنَ وَطْئِهَا بِمِلْكِ الْيَمِينِ. وَسُئِلَ - رَحِمَهُ اللَّهُ -: عَنْ رَجُلٍ تَزَوَّجَ بِامْرَأَةٍ مِنْ مُدَّةٍ سَنَةً وَلَمْ يَدْخُلْ بِهَا وَطَلَّقَهَا قَبْلَ الْإِصَابَةِ: فَهَلْ يَجُوزُ لَهُ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ بِالْأُمِّ بَعْدَ طَلَاقِ الْبِنْتِ؟ فَأَجَابَ: لَا يَجُوزُ تَزْوِيجُ أُمِّ امْرَأَتِهِ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَدْخُلْ بِهَا. وَاَللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ.
