The Status of Hagar (peace be upon her) with Ibrahim (peace be upon him)

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, some scholars mention that Hagar (peace be upon her) was the wife of Ibrahim (peace and blessings be upon him).

The Shaykh:
She was not his wife; his wife was Sarah, his cousin’s daughter. As for Hagar, she was a slave woman, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) took her as a concubine.

The questioner:
He says: They mention that she was a slave woman belonging to one of the kings of the world. Is this correct?

The Shaykh:
Yes, she was a slave woman, and the King of Egypt gave her to him. The King of Egypt gave her to Sarah, the wife of Ibrahim (peace be upon him), and Sarah gave her to Ibrahim (peace be upon him).
