A collection of hadiths: The slave woman gives birth to her master, and the freedom of the mahram

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, how do we reconcile the two hadiths: the hadith of Jibril (peace be upon him)
Among the signs of the Hour is that a slave woman will give birth to her master.في أشراط الساعة أن تلد الأمة ربتها
and the statement, "Whoever owns a mahram, he is free."

Answer:
There is no contradiction between them that requires reconciliation. The slave woman gives birth to her master; when she gives birth to him, she is freed by him, so she becomes a slave. If the slave woman gives birth to her master, she is freed by her daughter. There is no contradiction, and freedom does not occur except from a neck.
