/Is it permissible for a man to force his female slave (his right hand possession) to have sexual intercourse (coitus)

 Is it permissible to force a wife or a slave girl to have intercourse? _____

There is no explicit text on forcing a wife or a slave girl to have intercourse
. Is coercion permissible for a wife, i.e. for a man to force his wife to have intercourse???
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said:
If a man calls his wife to his bed and she refuses, and he spends the night angry with her, the angels will curse her until morning.
Narrator: Abu Hurairah Narrator: Al-Bukhari - Source: Sahih Al-Bukhari - Page or number: 3237
Summary of the narrator’s ruling: [Sahih]

____________________.
But of course, without an excuse,
the general rule is clear, as the Messenger of God said (There should be neither harm nor reciprocating harm)

. ____
The excuse that a woman uses to abstain from her husband may be that he does not pray, or drinks alcohol, or eats forbidden money, so she abstains from him until he stops these sins
. ____
A husband who does not fulfill the responsibilities of his guardianship, so he is negligent in spending on the household and wastes his money on things that are not beneficial, so she abstains from him until he stops this sin
 .


He says.
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “It is enough of a sin for a man to neglect those he is responsible for providing for.

” Narrator: Al-Nawawi - Source: Al-Majmu’ - Page or number: 6/234 Summary of the narrator’s ruling: Its chain of transmission is authentic, and Muslim narrated it in his Sahih with the same meaning: (It is enough of a sin for a man to withhold the food of those he is responsible for) ..
_____
Another husband insults his wife and treats her badly for no good reason .

The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, says:

- None of you should flog his wife as he would flog a slave, then have intercourse with her at the end of the day.
Narrator: Abdullah bin Zam’ah Narrator: Al-Bukhari - Source: Sahih Al-Bukhari - Page or number: 5204
Summary of the narrator’s ruling: [Sahih] 
_____________
____
Because as the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said (The rule is no harm and no harming),


her psychological state does not allow for this intercourse after this insult, and the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) clearly forbade the one who insulted his wife at the beginning of the day from having intercourse with her at the end of the day.
____



It is also a clear violation of the commandment of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) 
-
Whoever believes in God and the Last Day, let him not harm his neighbor, and treat women well. Narrator: Fadala bin Ubaid Al-Ansari. Narrator: Al-Albani - Source: Sahih Al-Jami - Page or number: 6503

____
But
when does a wife refuse without an excuse and then deserve the curse of the angels???

When the man does all his duties as a man and bears the responsibility of his guardianship and fears Allah in his treatment of her and treats her well, then 
she refuses him and he spends the night angry with her .


Note:

A woman may refuse for an acceptable excuse. A wife may refuse for an acceptable excuse, such as if she is physically exhausted from the responsibilities of raising children, especially during breastfeeding periods, for example. The husband appreciates this because of the affection and mercy in his heart for her, so he spends the night 
pleased with her .


And among His signs is that He created for you mates from among yourselves, that you may find tranquility in them, and He has put between you affection and mercy. ) Surah Ar-Rum 21


____


But the curse of the angels
only comes if the righteous husband spends the night angry, then the angels curse her because of his anger. And often the righteous husband is angry because his wife’s excuse is arbitrary.
____




For example,
 let's suppose that there is a spoiled wife who is extravagant in her requests. For example, she asked her husband for a new car. Out of his intense love for her, her husband fulfilled her request. However, after a short while, she asked for another new car. Her husband refused to ask for it and saw that this was extravagance in an inappropriate manner. So when he invited her to bed, she also refused to ask for it as a means of pressuring him. Examples of such wives exist and we know that. Here, the wife refuses without an acceptable excuse, so her husband becomes angry with her overnight, so she deserves the curses of the angels until she becomes pregnant . This type of wife exists and we all know that. ____ But despite all of this, the noble hadith did not permit forcing her to have intercourse and did not refer to that at all. However, all that the hadith told us about is that this refusing wife will be cursed by the angels until she becomes pregnant. ____







Even the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace


Kindness is never added to anything without beautifying it, and it is never removed from anything without disfiguring it.

____________________________________ ____

The conclusion from the above

is that if religion does not permit coercion with a wife who is bound by a marriage contract and chooses her husband with full will and knows the duties of marriage and refuses her husband without an acceptable excuse, then religion does not urge the husband to force her. On the contrary, it tells him that kindness beautifies everything, even if it strips something of its dignity. So what about the female



slave whom fate has brought to him??? You will tell me that this is a female slave, I will tell you that the commandments of the true religion regarding a female slave are harsher than regarding a free wife. ____ Being kind to a female slave or even a male slave is in the same container as being kind to one’s parents . { And worship Allah and associate nothing with Him, and to parents do good , and to relatives , orphans, the needy, the neighbor who is a relative and the neighbor who is a stranger, the companion at your side, the wayfarer , and those whom your right hands possess. Indeed, Allah does not like anyone who is arrogant and boastful. Verse 36 in Surat An-Nisa. We all know the status of parents in the true religion. ____ The right hand possession is in one vessel with the pillar of our religion in the last will of the Messenger of Allah ( Prayer, prayer, and those whom your right hands possess ) ____ These commandments do not mean that the right hand possession is better than the free wife in good treatment!!! But the free woman has good social circumstances, she has her family and relatives, while the right hand possession (men .. and women) does not have these advantages, so you find the commandments for the slave woman are more severe than the wife. ____ This is supported by ancient religious scholars who were contemporary with this phenomenon . ____

Ahmad bin Ali bin Hajar Al-Asqalani
Dar Al-Rayyan for Heritage Year of Publication: 1407 AH / 1986 AD
Edition Number: ---
Number of Parts: Thirteen Parts
..................................................... ...........................
Sahih Al-Bukhari » The Book of Compulsion » It is not permissible to marry someone who is forced




Footnote No.: 1
Page: 334] His saying: (Chapter: Marriage of a person under duress is not permissible) “Mukhar” with the opening of the “ra.”


Saying: ( And do not compel your girls to prostitution - to His saying -: Forgiving, Merciful. This is how Abu Dharr and Al-Ismaili said, and Al-Qabisi added the wording: “their compulsion.” And according to Al-Nasafi , “ the verse” instead of his saying etc., and likewise for Al-Jurjani, and he cited in the narration of Karima the entire verse. And girls with the opening of the fa and the ta is the plural of girl, and what is meant by it is the slave girl and also the servant girl even if she is free, and the wisdom of restricting it with his saying: If they desire chastity is that compulsion does not occur except with the desire for chastity; because the obedient one is not called compelled, so the estimate is your girls who are accustomed to prostitution, and this was hidden from some of the commentators..... He made if they desire chastity related to his saying before that and marry the single among you (in verse 32) and the rest of the discussion of this verse will come after two chapters, and some of them have questioned the suitability of the verse for the translation and it is possible that he indicated that the desired translation is understood by way of priority because if he forbade compulsion in what is not permissible, then the prohibition of It is more appropriate to force what is permissible. Because if he forbade coercion in what is not permissible, then it is more appropriate to forbid coercion in what is permissible . Ibn Battaal said The majority of scholars are of the view that the marriage of one who is forced is invalid.

Please clarify the words in this quote.

Conclusion: In light of the verses of the Holy Quran, the majority of scholars have ruled that the marriage of a person who is forced, whether free or slave,

is invalid . ____ ____
I conclude from what is stated in Fath Al-Bari and in light of the verses of the Holy Quran
that if coercion into what is forbidden is forbidden, then forbidding coercion into what is

permissible is more appropriate. ____

But how is this
because if coercion into what is not permissible is forbidden, then forbidding coercion into what is permissible is more appropriate??
Because
coercion generally makes a person hate and detest something that he is forced to do, and thus
coercion into what is permissible makes a person hate and detest what is permissible, and thus coercion into what is permissible is forbidden because through coercion and not through gentleness you make him actually hate what is permissible and turn to what is forbidden.
____
For example, a student hates a certain subject and does not like to review its lessons, so a successful teacher is the one who makes his student love his subject through gentleness.
____
But the failed teacher is the one who beats his student until he studies his lessons under duress , which results in the student hating this subject, and he does the exact opposite, tends to neglect studying it because of his teacher’s insult to him and then fails it 
because of the psychological complex that has formed between him and the subject. As a result of his teacher’s insult to him.
____
Compare this
to the fact that when a slave is forced to have intercourse, this 
will make her hate what is permissible because she will hate her owner and practicing what is permissible with her owner, and she may turn to what is forbidden and commit adultery with another man whom she may love and have a heartfelt inclination towards.
____
And the rule says (no harm and no harming). The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said
why???
If forcing 
what is permissible will ultimately lead to falling into what is forbidden, then forcing what is permissible is forbidden .
____
Also, 
coercion is against the kindness recommended in verse 36 in Surat An-Nisa, and we have referred to the verse before ..
because that will cause psychological and physical harm to the slave

The Messenger of God has commanded us

that none of you should say: My slave, or my slave girl. You are all slaves of God, and all your women are slave girls of God. Rather, let him say: My boy, or my slave girl, or my young man, or my young woman.
Narrator: Abu Hurairah. Narrator: Al-Albani. Source: Sahih Al-Jami`. Page or number: 7765.
Summary of the narrator’s ruling: Authentic.
If the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, forbade us from harming slaves by using the word “slave” or “maidma,” so that their psyche would not be harmed, and it is considered verbal violence prohibited in the noble hadith.
____

So what about coercion into intercourse,
which will cause physical and psychological harm that will exceed dozens of times the word “my nation”?

The general rule, as the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, is “No harm and no harming.”

____
The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said :
“Kindness is never in anything without beautifying it, and it is never removed from anything without disfiguring it.”

Summary of the narrator’s ruling: Authentic .
____________________________________________________
Assuming that it is somewhat difficult that she does not have a heart inclination towards her owner and that she has a heart inclination towards another man???



In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
{And those who seek a contract from among those your right hands possess - make a contract with them if you know there is good in them and give them from the wealth of God which He has given you.} [An-Nur: part of verse 33].
____

{And whoever among you cannot afford to marry free, believing women, then from those your right hands possess of believing girls. And Allah knows best about your faith, some of you from others. So marry them with the permission of their people and give them their due compensation according to what is acceptable, [as] chaste, not fornicators nor taking [as] lovers.} [An-Nisa: 25] The wage is the dowry ____ _ If the other man finds her right and is serious, then let




her write to her owner on behalf of herself (And the contract of manumission) is not at the owner’s request, but at her request (as we discussed before in the paragraph on why Islam did not abolish slavery with the stroke of a pen).
During the period of manumission, she is not the property of the right hand, nor is she free, but she is absolutely forbidden to her owner during this period, and she also has the right to the zakat of Muslims, and the zakat of Muslims at that time is like tax money in our time, i.e. like state money. 
( Zakat expenditures are only for the poor and the needy and those employed to collect [ zakat] and for bringing hearts together and for freeing captives and those in debt and for the cause of Allah and for the wayfarer - an obligation imposed by Allah. And Allah is Knowing and Wise. ) Surah At-Tawbah, verse 60
____
If this other man is really serious, then let him pay the financial value that she wrote to her first owner so that she can become free, and let this financial value be 
her dowry that he will pay to her to buy her freedom.
.....
And as the writing entails loyalty to his bond like the bond of kinship and a social vessel for her, it is as if she bought with her dowry the thorn and clan of her owner and his family. Free and she has thorn and clan and a social vessel.

"Loyalty" about which the Messenger (peace be upon him) said: "Loyalty is a bond like the bond of kinship" [Sahih Al-Albani

____ Also, her owner is required to give her money and give them from the wealth of Allah which He has given you} [An-Nur: from verse 33]. And praise be to Allah for the blessing of Islam.) ____ Let us assume an empty sophistical argument. And
let
us assume

that slavery
exists
in our current era!!!! She has no inclination in her heart towards her owner or towards any other man and wants her freedom???



...................................
It is okay for her to write to her owner about herself and go to do what women can do and work in, and her work is for a wage, such as working as a tailor or a spinner or anything women can do for a wage, in order to pay the financial value agreed upon in the contract. She also has the right to go to the treasury of the Muslims and ask for her share of the state taxes in order to become free.
As we said, writing does not only buy her freedom, but it also buys a social vessel, a thorn, and a clannishness.
.....
The great Islam completely emptied slavery of its content, dried up its sources, and widened the doors of escape from slavery, whether through writing or urging in more than one place to free slaves for the sake of God.
Praise be to God for the blessing of Islam, and that is enough of a blessing
____

And God knows best ___ God knows best ___ God knows best
____
At that time, the real problem with the female slave was not that she was forced to have intercourse by her owner

.
The real problem was that the man had some sensitivity inside him about treating his female slave as he would treat his wife, because after the advent of Islam, the great religion obligated the man towards his female slave (material, social and religious commitment). These commitments completely emptied slavery of its content, and rather the relationship between the man and his female slave became content with marriage.
____
It is natural that any man wants the mother of his children to be free and from a noble family.
He may have a heartfelt inclination towards his female slave, but his family refuses that and it may cause problems with them, especially the mother. For example, his mother refuses to have grandchildren from a female slave and wants free grandchildren from a noble lineage,
as we say in Egypt ( the mother wants to marry her son to the Sultan’s daughter )_____

____________

If in our current era there are often those who refuse to marry those who are socially and financially inferior to him.
For example, a young man from a so-called upper class refuses to marry a girl from a working-class neighborhood (with all due respect, of course)
____ ____ Practical example /
____
Imagine that there is a maid or secretary working in a giant investment company.
Of course, the maid and secretary are not slaves, but free women who do their work for a wage, and they have no right over the company owner other than a respectable wage that rewards the work they do.
However, the secretary or maid is from a lower material and social class.
____
But imagine, would the company owner be satisfied to marry the maid or secretary???!!! While his brother, for example, is married to a girl from a high social background!!!
He will say to himself, why would my brother choose the mother of his children from a distinguished family so that his children will be proud of her.
While my children's mother is a secretary or maid from a modest family background, his children feel inferior towards his brother's children.
With all due respect to the maid and secretary, of course, she may be better and more generous than any woman in her personality. Unfortunately, these class concepts have only spread because of our distance from our religion. There is no difference between one Muslim and another except in piety. And it is one of the reasons for the decline and deterioration of Muslims now )
____
Let us suppose that all these considerations do not concern the owner of the giant company and that he has a heartfelt inclination towards the secretary or the maid and goes to propose to this maid or secretary.
_____
Will she reject him? And what will be her feelings?
_____
Most likely (no), on the contrary, she will see in him the groom who offers her the opportunity of a lifetime and that he will move her from her material and social level to a higher material and social level. If this is the case of free women in our current era, women in general are looking for comfort, security and a secure future (and the future is in the hands of Allah Almighty)
_____
So what about the slave girl, which is more suitable and appropriate for her and which will the slave girl choose, to be satisfied with a satisfied soul and with complete happiness that her master lives with her or will she write for herself???
Both paths lead to freedom.
But which one is easier and provides more security, comfort and stability, whether social, material or emotional, and will the slave girl choose it???
